Ground Beef Chili

Langkah-langkah

1. Heat a large Dutch oven or similar sturdy pot over medium-high heat. Add the beef, salt, and pepper. Brown the meat, breaking it apart into small pieces and stirring occasionally until it is fully cooked through, about 5 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer it to a paper towel-lined plate. Lightly pat dry and set aside.

2. Reduce heat to medium and add the oil. Once the oil is hot, add the onion, green and red bell pepper, and sweet potato. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are softened and turning golden brown, about 10 to 15 minutes. Add garlic, chili powder, cumin, chipotle chili powder, oregano, cayenne, and cinnamon. Cook until very fragrant, about 1 minute.

3. Add the broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Let simmer 3 minutes. Add the diced tomatoes, red kidney beans, black beans, and reserved ground beef.

4. Reduce heat to medium low and partially cover the pot. Simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until the chili is thickened and tantalizingly fragrant, about 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes.

5. Stir in the sugar. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired. Serve hot, with all of your favorite toppings.
