This is a very hearty and chunky chili with tons of vegetables and can be made with either ground beef or ground turkey breast. Ingredients:
1 pound lean ground beef |
1 onion, chopped |
1 green bell pepper, chopped |
1 yellow bell pepper, chopped |
1 carrot, diced |
1 zucchini, diced |
1 yellow squash, diced |
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes |
1 (16 ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed and drained |
1 (16 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained |
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes |
1 cup frozen white corn kernels |
1 tablespoon minced garlic |
1 1/4 tablespoons chili powder |
1 tablespoon brown sugar |
1/2 teaspoon paprika |
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper |
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Break ground beef into small pieces into a large pot over medium heat; cook and stir until beginning to brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Add onion, green bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and carrot to ground beef; cook and stir until the vegetables begin to soften, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir zucchini and yellow squash into the beef mixture; continue cooking until the beef is completely browned, 3 to 5 minutes more. Drain excess liquid from the pot and return to medium heat. 2. Stir crushed tomatoes, kidney beans, black beans, diced tomatoes, corn, and garlic into the beef mixture; bring to a boil. Season mixture with chili powder, brown sugar, paprika, oregano, cayenne pepper, cumin, salt, and black pepper. 3. Reduce heat to low, place a cover on the pot, and cook chili at a simmer for 30 minutes. |
