Instructions
Step 1
"In a large pot or dutch oven, over a med-high flame, heat 1 Tbs. olive oil. When it's shimmering, add onions and all bell peppers. They will release a lot of liquid, saute until veggies are soft and most of that liquid has cooked off. Add garlic and saute for an additional 2-3 minutes, until fragrant. Remove most of the veggies to a bowl or plate.
Step 2
Add meat to pan, breaking up into very small pieces. Add 1 tsp salt and 2 Tbs chili powder. Brown.
Step 3
Add the veggies back into the pan along with any juices that have escaped onto the plate. Stir to combine.
Step 4
Add all canned ingredients (beans, tomatoes, tomato paste, corn) and stir to combine.
Step 5
Add additional 2-3 Tbs. chili powder, cayenne, bay leaves, and stir to combine.
Step 6
Turn heat down to its lowest setting, leaving a lid partially on, simmer for at least an hour, stirring about every 10 minutes or so.
Step 7
Serve with your favorite toppings: sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped fresh onions, etc.
