Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large dutch oven over medium-high heat. Once it’s hot, add the onion and celery and cook for 2-3 minutes, until soft and translucent. Add the garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.

Step 2

Add the ground beef and brown until no pink remains. Stir in the rest of the ingredients, spices, and 4 cups of beef broth until combined. Add up to 2 cups more broth to reach desired consistency.

Step 3

Turn the heat up to high and bring it to a boil. Once it’s boiling, turn the heat down to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 14-16 minutes, until the potatoes are fork-tender. Taste and add more salt, pepper, or red pepper flakes as needed.

Step 4

Serve hot with desired toppings. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat on the stove or covered in the microwave until heated through.
