Chef's tip
Ground chicken is often leaner than ground beef and can dry out more quickly. When browning it, add a little oil if needed and keep the pan juices unless the recipe says to drain them. Cook just until it reaches 165°F (74°C).
3 tbsp chili powder
2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp dried oregano
½ tsp cayenne pepper
1 tbsp tomato paste
1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
1 cup beef broth
Chef's tip
The flavor will be a little lighter - use the same amount.
2 cans (15 oz each) kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 tsp salt, plus more to taste
½ tsp black pepper

For serving

shredded cheddar cheese, for serving (optional)
sour cream, for serving (optional)
sliced scallions, for serving (optional)

Instructions

1
Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and bell pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and the onion is translucent, about 6–8 minutes.
2
Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
