Two hours of simmering creates well-melded flavor in Jamie Deen's loaded chili. The beef is sprinkled with cumin, chili powder and oregano[-making it arguably a star of the dish (but don't tell the beans).]
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large red onion, diced
1 medium red bell pepper, diced
1 medium yellow bell pepper, diced
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 pound lean ground beef
8 ounces italian sausage, casing removed
1/4 cup chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon dried oregano
one 4-ounce can tomato paste
one 12-ounce bottle beer
one 28-ounce can diced tomatoes
one 14-ounce can diced tomatoes
one 15-ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
one 15-ounce can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
one 15-ounce can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
shredded cheddar
sour cream
chopped green onions
Directions:
1. Add the olive oil to a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the onions and peppers and saute until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and saute until just fragrant. Stir in the beef and sausage, breaking it up with the back of a wooden spoon, and cook until browned, about 6 minutes.
2. Drain the beef mixture through a colander. Add it back to the Dutch oven and stir in the chili powder, cumin and oregano. Cook for about 2 minutes. Stir the tomato paste into the beef mixture; this will toast it and give the chili more flavor. Add the beer and stir up any browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Bring to a simmer, and then add the diced tomatoes and beans. Simmer on medium-low for 2 hours, stirring on occasion to keep the bottom from sticking.
3. Top with shredded cheese, sour cream and chopped green onions before serving.
