Today I am sharing Three Bean Chili with you. It's an easy, but tasty recipe spiced up with jalapeno pepper and cayenne pepper. A touch of brown sugar tones down the acidity of the tomatoes. I've used kidney beans, black beans, and chickpeas but you can use any type of canned beans that you have on hand.

Instructions to make Three Bean Chili:
  1. In a large pot (4 to 5 quart works), bring oil up to medium temp, add onions, peppers, and garlic, and sweat the aromatics until onions turn translucent (about 4 or 5 minutes).
  2. Add tomato paste, chili powder, cumin, black pepper, and bay leaf.
  3. Stir to incorporate and let the tomato paste caramelize for about a minute or so.
  4. Stir in liquid.
  5. Add ground beef, salt, Worcestershire sauce, and hot sauce.
  6. Stir until ground beef is all broken up and all the ingredients are thoroughly incorporated.
  7. Add beans and give it a few good stirs.
  8. Turn heat down just under medium and cook, COVERED (I know the pic isn't covered - I forgot to take that one), for 20 minutes, stirring once or twice during that time. If solids are getting stuck to the bottom of the pot, turn the heat down just a little bit.
  9. Turn heat to low and cook with lid askew for another 20 minutes, adjusting seasoning halfway. Leaving the lid askew lets the steam evaporate, the flavors concentrate, and the chili will thicken a bit.
  10. All done! Enjoy with toppings of choice.
