Instructions
-
In a large pot or Dutch oven, brown the ground beef over medium heat until fully cooked. Break up the meat into small pieces with a wooden spoon as it cooks.
-
Add the diced onion, green bell pepper, and minced garlic to the pot. Cook for about 5 minutes, until the vegetables start to soften and become fragrant.
-
Stir in the diced tomatoes, kidney beans, tomato paste, and beef broth. Mix well to combine all the ingredients.
-
Season the chili with chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper. Stir to evenly distribute the spices throughout the dish.
-
Bring the chili to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Let it simmer for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
-
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. You can add more chili powder for extra heat or more salt and pepper as desired.
-
Once the chili has thickened and the flavors have melded together, it's ready to serve. Ladle it into bowls and top with your favorite garnishes such as shredded cheese, sour cream, chopped green onions, or fresh cilantro.

Enjoy your Original San Antonio Chile with some warm cornbread or crackers on the side.
