Comforting Chili for Cold Days

Ingredients 0/13

Step 1

Warm some vegetable oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add the ground chicken and cook it, breaking it up with a spoon, until it’s no longer pink and nicely crumbly—this usually takes about 10 minutes. Once cooked, drain any excess liquid.

Step 2

Toss in the pinto beans, chopped onions, diced tomatoes, Mexican-style stewed tomatoes, and a bit of water. Add in the brown sugar, chili powder, vinegar, mustard, salt, and black pepper. Give everything a good stir and bring the mixture up to a boil.

Step 3

Once boiling, lower the heat to a gentle simmer. Cover the pot and let it cook slowly for about 3 hours, stirring now and then. If the chili gets too thick while it simmers, just add a splash of water to keep it at your desired consistency.

Step 4

This slow cooking really helps the flavors meld together into a cozy, hearty chili perfect for chilly days.
