Chili Recipe – rich, hearty, and filling beef chili recipe with ground beef and beef cubes, beans, chili seasoning, and other warm spices. An easy go-to family-friendly winter meal!
Heat oil in a large saucepan and brown diced beef over medium-high heat.
Add ground beef, breaking up the meat while stirring, and cook until no longer pink – about 6-7 minutes.
Then toss in onions, garlic, jalapenos, chili powder, cayenne pepper and dried thyme.
Mix until thoroughly combined. Cook for another 3-4 minutes to allow the spices to meld together.
Pour in the tomato sauce, followed by the beans and water/broth. Stir well and scrape the sides.
Add cumin powder, oregano, coriander, salt, and masa harina as a thickener. Stir and bring it to a simmer over medium heat and cook for about 15-20 minutes. Adjust broth/water when necessary or depending on your preference.
Turn off the stove and remove the pot from the heat. Serve with shredded cheddar, chopped onions, avocado, and/or tortilla chips. Enjoy!
Notes
To store, let the chili cool down completely before transferring them in an airtight container and store in the freezer for 2-3 months. Now you’ll have an express chili whenever you feel like wanting to. You can also refrigerate it for like 2-3 days.
You can also swap the beef cubes for diced turkey, chicken, or pork.
