Receta Chili With Beef And Beans-Chili Con Carne
I think this Chili With Beef and Beans or more commonly known as Chili con carne, is an ideal hearty meal for the current cooler season. Here’s my take of this popular Mexican-American dish that’s typically made from chili peppers, tomatoes, garlic, onions, cumin, and beans, along with chopped or ground beef. It’s probably one of the easiest one-pot meal that you can cook up quickly. As usual, I added my favorite ingredients to this dish. I used ancho chili powder to provide the mild to medium heat and the deep smokey flavor that’s essential for this dish, and red kidney beans, which is one of my favorite legumes. The end result was just fantastic.
Chili With Beef And Beans-Chili Con Carne
Ingredients
- 3 Tbsp Olive Oil
- 2 Cloves Garlic, chopped
- 1 Medium Yellow Onion, finely chopped
- 400 g Ground Beef
- 1 tsp Dried Oregano
- 4 Tbsp Ancho Chili Powder
- 1 tsp Cumin Powder
- 2 Cans (15 oz/425 g x 2) Red Kidney Beans, drained
- 1 Can (28 oz/794g/1 lb 12 oz) Diced Tomatoes With Juice

Method
Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
Heat the cast iron pot over a moderate heat. Add the oil, garlic, and onion and cook until golden, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes.
Turn the heat on high, mix in the ground beef, oregano, chili powder, cumin, and stir until the beef mixture is deep red in color and the meat is no longer pink.
Add the beans, diced tomatoes, and stock into the beef mixture. Bring it to a boil, switch off the heat and cover with a piece of parchment paper and then cover with the lid. Cook in the preheated oven for about 1 ½ hours and season with sea salt. Serve the chili with cheese, cilantro, and sour cream, if desired.
