This hearty homemade chili is the ultimate comfort food! Made with ground beef, beans, tomatoes, and warming spices, it’s rich, flavorful, and ready in under an hour. Perfect for game day, weeknight dinners, or cozy family meals.
1. Dice the onion and mince the garlic. Add both to a large pot with the olive oil and cook over medium heat until soft and translucent.
2. Add the ground beef and cook until fully browned.
3. Drain the beans and add them to the pot along with diced tomatoes, tomato paste, water, and all chili seasoning ingredients. Stir until combined.
4. Cover with a lid and simmer over low heat for at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. The longer it simmers, the better the flavor.
5. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Serve hot with your favorite toppings.
*For richer flavor, use ground beef with a higher fat content.
**If you don’t like tomato chunks, substitute crushed tomatoes for a smoother texture.
***The chili powder in this recipe is mild, not overly spicy. Add cayenne for more heat.
