Step 1

Make the seasoning mix: Combine all seasoning mix ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside.

Step 2

Render the pancetta: Heat avocado oil over medium-low heat. Add pancetta and cook for about 8 minutes until crispy and the fat is rendered, stirring occasionally.

Step 3

Cook the aromatics: Increase heat to medium and add the chopped onion. Cook for about 7 minutes until softened, stirring every couple of minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Cook the tomato paste: Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until slightly darkened in color, stirring often.

Step 5

Brown the beef: Add the ground beef and break it up with a wooden spoon. Cook for 4 minutes, then stir in the seasoning mix. Continue cooking for 2 to 3 minutes until the beef is mostly cooked through.

Step 6

Simmer the chili: Add kidney beans, pinto beans, diced tomatoes, green chiles, and beef broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered for 40 minutes, stirring occasionally.
