Servings: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion medium, chopped
- 1 green bell pepper medium, diced
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 3 cups vegetable broth
- 1- 15 ounce tomato sauce canned
- 1- 15 ounce diced tomatoes canned
- 1- 15 ounce red kidney beans drained and rinsed, or chili beans
- 1- 15 ounce great northern beans drained and rinsed, or chili beans
- 1- 15 ounce black beans drained and rinsed, or chili beans
- 1 tablespoon cocoa Powder
- 2 1/2 tablespoons chili Powder or more to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon ground oregano
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper to taste
- 1/8 teaspoon sea salt to taste
Instructions
- In a large pot over medium heat, add in the oil. Once the oil is warmed, add in the onion and green bell pepper and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Add in the garlic and cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring frequently and being careful not to burn the garlic.
- Mix in the remaining ingredients increase heat, and bring to a generous boil, stirring all the ingredients together.
- Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for at least 30 minutes. The longer the chili cooks, the more flavor it will have. So, if you’ve got the time, let it very gently simmer on the stove for an hour. (If you cook it for an hour, you may need to add in just a bit more broth or water)
- Once ready to eat, take off of the heat and garnish with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
Notes
For a little less soupy chili and more thick and hearty, after the chili has cooked up, remove the lid from the pot and let it simmer until just enough liquid evaporates, about 10 minutes, and the chili gets a thicker consistency.
