  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 green bell pepper, seeded and diced

  • 1 jalapeno chile, minced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

Instructions

  1. Brown the beef in a large, high-walled skillet over medium heat with a tablespoon of canola oil.
  2. Add in the peppers, celery, onion, jalapeno, and garlic. Saute until the vegetables become slightly tender.
  3. In a seperate bowl, combine all of the dry ingredients. Add the dry ingredients to the beef and vegetable mixture, stirring well.
  4. Cook until the vegetables are completely tender, about 10 minutes.
  5. Add kidney beans, crushed tomato, diced tomatoes, salt and pepper and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. The chili should become very thick.
