¾ lb ground beef, preferably chuck

12 oz kidney beans, canned

1 cup red onion diced, diced

½ cup green bell pepper, chopped fine

1 tbsp chili powder

2 tsp cayenne

2 cloves garlic, minced

18 oz tomatoes, canned, diced

10½ oz tomato sauce

salt & ground black pepper, to taste

3 tbsp vegetable oil

To garnish

1 tbsp cilantro, chopped

In a large skillet over medium heat, saute the ground beef, garlic, onion, and bell pepper in oil, stirring often to keep meat from sticking or burning, until well browned or caramelized. Set aside.

Using the same pot, combine spices, tomatoes, and tomato sauce together. Clean the pot if necessary.

Bring the mixture to a simmer, then add the browned meat. Cover as necessary, and continue simmering for about an hour until flavors meld.

Add the canned beans and season to taste with salt and pepper. Adjust accordingly.

Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve immediately.
