Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 medium white onion diced
  • 1 green pepper diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • ½ teaspoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 15 oz can kidney beans drained & rinsed
  • 15 oz can black beans drained & rinsed
  • 2 15 oz can diced tomatoes
  • 15 oz can corn drained
  • 4.5 oz can green chiles
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 2 cups water
  • ⅓ cup chopped cilantro

Toppings:

  • sour cream tortilla strips, jalapenos, avocado, cheddar cheese

Instructions

  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in large dutch oven over medium-high heat. Once hot, add ground beef and cook until no longer pink. Drain excess grease and set meat aside in a bowl.
  • In the same pan, turn heat back on to medium-high and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Cook onion and pepper until beginning to soften, about 5 minutes. Add in garlic, chili powder, garlic powder, paprika, cumin, oregano, salt and pepper. Stir and let cook one minute. 
  • Pour in beans, diced tomatoes, corn, and green chiles. Stir to combine, then add broth and water.
  • Stir in chopped cilantro and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low and let simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. 
  • Top with toppings of choice! I like cheese, tortilla strips, and sour cream.
