Step 1
Crumbl the beef into a large pot over medium-high heat. Toss in the chopped onion and garlic, then cook everything together, stirring occasionally, until the beef is fully browned—this usually takes about 7 to 10 minutes. Once cooked, drain off any excess grease and put the pot back on the heat.
Step 2
Add the diced tomatoes, beef broth, green chilies, chili powder, brown sugar, oregano, cumin, and salt to the beef. Give it all a good stir to combine. Then, stir in the beans and bring the mixture up to a boil.
Step 3
Once boiling, lower the heat to medium-low and cover the pot. Let it simmer gently for about an hour so all the flavors can meld together. Give it a taste before serving and adjust the seasoning if you need to.
Best Pairings For This Dish
Serve the chili hot with classic toppings like shredded cheese, sour cream, and chopped green onions. Cornbread or tortilla chips make excellent side options to complement the dish. For a lighter touch, add a fresh salad or steamed vegetables alongside.
Storage Guide
Allow the chili to cool completely before storing it in an airtight container. It keeps well in the refrigerator for up to four days and can be frozen for up to three months. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave, stirring occasionally to maintain even warmth.
