Ingredients:
- 1 pound boneless beef sirloin, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 onions, diced
- 1 green bell pepper, diced
- 1 can (14.5 ounces) diced tomatoes
- 1 can (15 ounces) pinto beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 can (15 ounces) kidney beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 can (15 ounces) black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- Pinch of cayenne pepper
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Ingredients: Begin by cutting the boneless beef sirloin into bite-sized pieces. Dice the onions and green bell pepper.
-
Brown the Beef: Heat cooking oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Cook the beef in batches until browned, stirring occasionally. Once browned, remove the beef from the Dutch oven and set it aside.
-
Sauté Vegetables: In the same Dutch oven, add diced onions and green bell pepper. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
-
Combine Ingredients: Stir in the diced tomatoes, drained and rinsed pinto beans, kidney beans, and black beans. Pour in the beef broth.
-
Season: Add ground cumin, chili powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper to taste. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
-
Simmer: Cover the Dutch oven and let the chili simmer over medium heat for about 10 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together.
-
Add Beef: After 10 minutes, stir in the browned beef pieces. Continue to cook for an additional 3 to 8 minutes, or until the beef is tender and cooked through.
-
Serve: Once the chili is cooked to perfection, serve it hot with your favorite toppings or sides. It pairs wonderfully with cornmeal scones or a green salad.
