This Texas Chili recipe will satisfy any chili craving! It’s hearty, spicy, full of delicious beef, and everything a good chili should be.

There are absolutely no beans to be found anywhere in this recipe. So meat is the star of this chili show, and I love that.

Olive oil Beef Salt Black pepper Onion Garlic Jalapeños Brown sugar Dried spices Tomato paste Crushed tomatoes Beef stock Lime juice

INGREDIENTS

Add the olive oil to a Dutch oven or large stockpot over medium-high heat.

1

Once heated through and the oil begins to shimmer, add half of the beef and season with salt and pepper.

2

Cook until browned on all sides, about 5 to 6 minutes. Remove to a plate, then repeat with the remaining beef, leaving behind the fat in the pot.

3

Lower the heat to medium, then add the onion, garlic, and jalapeños. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes, until they begin to soften.

4

Add in the brown sugar, chili powder, paprika, onion powder, cumin, and oregano, and sauté another 2 to 3 minutes until fragrant.

5

Stir in the tomato paste, crushed tomatoes, and beef stock, then bring to a boil.

6

Reduce the heat just enough to keep a gentle simmer, then cook for 2 to 2 ½ hours, until the liquid has reduced and the meat is tender enough to shred with a fork.

7

Mix in the lime juice, then serve with desired toppings.

8
