easy chili recipe

This easy beef chili recipe from Delish.com is perfect for those wintery nights. Made with kidney beans, tomato paste, and ground beef, it's super easy to throw together and will satisfy any appetite.

Best-Ever Beef Chili

olive oil

white onion,

garlic,

tomato paste

beef

tbsp. chili powder

cumin

oregano

paprika

cayenne pepper (optional)

Kosher salt

black pepper

kidney beans, drained

tomatoes

Shredded cheddar

Sour cream

green onions

This chili is AH-MAZING!!! I will definitely be making it again. I did pinto beans and garbanzo beans (I am a huge believer that all beans belong in chili, lol) instead of the kidney beans (although I would have used them if I had of had them when I made this), but other than that I did it by the recipe and loved every bite! 10/10.

Followed your recipe exactly as written. The results are great! The people who complain are the ones who don't follow the rules [recipe]
and couldn't have the harmonious outcome that I had. Maybe they will concentrate next time and learn how to appreciate your Chili!

So I'm not a huge chili person - to be frank I've never cooked it before. So this was a first for me and my boyfriend. And the end result - WE LOVED IT. We did tweak it a little because we both personally hate beans and consulted the reviews below to drain the meat before adding the tomato paste but it's a hit. I've never in my life made such a great tasty and heart meal before. None of the delish recipes are ever bad! thanks for sharing this and for first timers - we are going back tonight to make a second batch!! :)

I just tried it. I think it is wonderful. I was really light on the salt when I added it. Not too spicy. It gives you more room for the others eating it to add more of salt pepper or chili powder to taste. I want to add green bell pepper next time I make it.  And there will be a next time.  Maybe I will double it so some came go in the freezer. Chili & spaghetti always freezes great

I made it like it said and came out delicious.

Great recipe!  I made a few changes, though.   I'm Hungarian and we love paprika so I tripled the amount.  I also used more garlic.  I served it with garlic toast and my family loved it!

Loved how easy this was to make but it just didn’t have enough going on with it. I honestly thought it was very bland and almost had a consistency of hot dog chili. I would not make this again!!

The recipe was bland. The next time I try it, I will increase the seasoning. I changed the order of instructions because ground meat should always be cooked before adding a liquid or paste. I also had to add a small can of tomato sauce. If not, I would have had dry pot of beans a meat.  Thanks for sharing your recipe.

Awesome and so easy. I impressed my husband, who is somewhat of an expert when it comes to chili. I added a couple of chopped green peppers !

This chili is AH-MAZING!! I will definitely be making it again. I didn’t have any kidney beans so I used black and garbanzo beans (I’m a huge believer that all beans belong in chili, lol), other than that I followed the recipe and was not disappointed, I enjoyed every bite! 10/10.

Beef Chili That's Perfect On Crisp Fall Days

<p>White Chicken Chili! One of my favorite soups. Creamy, smoky, cozy, and spicy with BIG flavor and simple ingredients. SO GOOD.</p>

Sarah's White Chicken Chili

bacon

yellow onion

garlic

chili powder

chicken broth

tomatoes with green chiles (with juices!)

chicken

pinto beans

black beans

cream cheese

Food processor prep: Pulse the bacon through the food processor until it looks like a chunky paste. Remove bacon and do the same with the onion, garlic, and jalapeño.

Sarah's White Chicken Chili Step 1

Cook bacon and veggies: Add the bacon to a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Once the bacon starts heating up, add the onion, garlic, and jalapeño mix so it all cooks together.

Sarah's White Chicken Chili Step 2

Build the soup: Add spices, broth, and tomatoes. Bring to a simmer.

Sarah's White Chicken Chili Step 3

Cook chicken: Add chicken. Bring to a low simmer. Cover and cook for 15 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through. Remove, cool, and shred.

Sarah's White Chicken Chili Step 4

Tie it all up: Stir in the shredded chicken, beans, and cream cheese.  The chili will be THICK, especially as it cools. It&#8217;s almost like a dip because, yes, we are monsters. Thin it out with water as you like!

Sarah's White Chicken Chili Step 5

Top and serve: Serve with every good thing under the sun, but mostly tortilla chips, cilantro, green onion, and cheese.

Sarah's White Chicken Chili Step 6

Love this recipe! Had some last of the season peppers I added to the food processor and finished with some smoked gouda...perfect for q cool Monday night and will be lunch for a few days for sure! Thanks!

Truly appreciate the way you made it. And again as always a big thumbs up for this. Waiting for more such in future too.

Made this tonight and LOVED it!  I'm trying to eat mostly plant-based food, so I left out the chicken and added cooked vegan "chicken" at the end.   I also added a few drops of liquid smoke to make up for the absence of the bacon, though I sampled the chili before adding the liquid smoke and it was fantastic even without it!  This will definitely be in my dinner rotation this winter!

I love that the same blog that persuades people to love tofu understands chili w cream cheese and bacon....food is such a pure pleasure! Thx for this recipe and your beautiful words.

Mmm mmm good. Just cooked this and it is delicious.

This was tasty. I made admendments for my guy who doesn't like cumin, so I added some minced cilantro stems to the veggies.  
The processing of the bacon and veggies into a paste-like consistency is new to me and will be added to my cooking repertoire.  What a brilliant way to make a base of flavor. 
Thank you! I will be making this again.

Made this for dinner tonight. It’s so good! This is definitely a recipe I will be keeping in my soup/chili rotation.

Made this for dinner tonight and everyone deemed it a winner! So quick, easy, and super tasty. I’ve been looking for a go-to chili recipe, and this is it. The bacon really brings it next level.

This was absolutely fantastic! I only had one can of tomatoes so I threw in a jar of salsa as well and it came out so well. Husband and stepson went back for thirds! Definitely making again.

I made this last night - and we polished off the leftovers tonight!

I used ground turkey breast instead of chicken (I browned it in a separate pan and then added it to the soup). Otherwise, I followed the recipe (two jalapeños). 

This was delicious. The boyfriend said it was "one of the best things I had ever made" - so high praise because I think I've made him lots of good meals. I highly recommend the recipe. I would warn that it takes more prep time, but it's still very doable on a weeknight. I will be making this again soon.

We had this tonight and it was delicious! We are vegetarian so I used extra beans, including pinto beans made fresh in the instant pot. Instead of bacon I threw in several chopped chipotles in adobo sauce!

So so tasty! Just finished the leftovers the following day and I've already told 3 friends about this recipe. Thank you for sharing. It's so delicious

I wasn't feeling like eating meat last night so I made this without the bacon and chicken and added some corn. I also used lowfat cream cheese and it was so dreamy. I will definitely try it with the meat sometime but this was perfection on a rainy Sunday night! Thanks!

Rockin' 5 Ingredient Sweet Potato Turkey Chili

lbs. turkey

taco seasoning

sweet potatoes,

water

broth (start

cayenne

Heat the oil over medium high heat in a heavy, deep pot. Add the onion, turkey, 1 tablespoon chili powder, and 1 tablespoon taco seasoning. Add water as needed to keep the turkey moist and moving around in the pan. When the turkey is browned and crumbled and the onions are soft, remove from the pan and set aside.

Bring to a low boil and simmer for 10 minutes or so, until the sweet potatoes are very soft. Using an immersion blender, puree the mixture until it reaches your desired consistency (you can also transfer to a regular blender and puree that way).

Add the browned turkey, black beans, and cayenne &#8211; stir to combine.

I LOVE this recipe!! Now that I’m doing WW I’m trying to calculate points per serving and I see it serves 5, is the serving size a cup? I’m sorry if this is a dumb question but I didn’t see it listed!
