I first made this in May 2004 because I didn't have a dry chili seasoning mix. It was excellent and easy. My husband adds crushed red pepper to his bown. This is my standard chili recipe now.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 lbs ground beef
2 cups onions, chopped
4 garlic cloves
3 1/2 cups kidney beans, drained
2 cups tomato sauce
2 cups salsa (1 jar ortega salsa)
3 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon dried oregano
2 teaspoons salt
Directions:
1. Heat vegetable oil in skillet.
2. Add beef, onions and garlic; cook until no longer pink. Drain.
3. Stir in remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to low, cover and cook for one hour (I've been content with 15 minutes).
4. Sprinkle with cheddar cheese, if desired, and serve.
