Ingredients
- 2 pounds lean ground beef
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 2 (12 ounce) cans pinto beans (drained and rinsed well)
- 1 onion (diced)
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons ground chili powder
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup tomato puree
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoons salt
Preparation
Add vegetable oil, diced onion, ground beef, and salt in a pot and place it over high heat. Once the meat chunks become brown, break them up into smaller pieces using a wooden spoon, and continue to stir as beef releases its juices.
When there is no more liquid in the pot, reduce heat to medium-high and add garlic, chili powder, cumin, paprika and black pepper.
Stir the mix until it starts to go dark (3 to 4 minutes), then add oregano, water, and tomato puree.
Bring to a simmer and adjust the heat to medium-low. Simmer for 30 minutes.
Finally, stir in diced green pepper and pinto beans and simmer 30 more minutes. The chili should turn into a nice thick mix. The whole process should take no more than 1 hour and 20 minutes.
Bon appétit!
