Recipe courtesy of Katie Lee Biegel
This is my go-to family chili recipe. My mother-in-law always serves her chili with butter crackers that we spread with softened butter, and it's become our tradition as well. They're so good dipped in the chili!
Ingredients
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1 yellow onion, chopped
1 jalapeño, seeded and minced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 pounds ground beef
2 Tablespoons chili powder
1 Tablespoon plus 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 bay leaf
1 5-ounce can tomato paste
1 28-ounce can diced tomatoes
1 16-ounce can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 Tablespoon white vinegar
Step 1
Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat with the olive oil.
Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Add the jalapeño and cook for another minute or two.
Add the garlic and cook until aromatic, another minute.
Step 2
Add the ground beef and cook until crumbled and just cooked through without getting too brown, 5 to 7 minutes.
Sprinkle over the chili powder, salt, cumin, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, and bay leaf and cook again for another few minutes.
Step 3
Add the tomato paste and stir to cook and coat the meat, 1 to 2 minutes.
Add the diced tomatoes and 1 cup water and bring to a simmer.
Allow to simmer for 1 hour.
Step 4
Add the beans and simmer, partially covered, for an additional hour.
Stir in the vinegar.
Step 5
Serve with your toppings of choice.
