Classic Beef Chili

This classic beef chili is our weekly go-to during soup season! It's hearty, filling, and layered with the perfect zesty flavor that's balanced with a hint of spice. We love serving this chili with some melted cheese on top and even some sour cream alongside our honey cornbread or homemade sourdough!
Ingredients
Instructions
Saute the onion and garlic: In a large pot, saute the diced onions in olive oil for 3-4 minutes with a pinch of salt. Then add the minced garlic and saute for 30-60 seconds.
Cook the ground beef: Add the ground beef and season it generously with a healthy pinch of salt. Cook the beef with the onions and garlic until every piece is browned and no longer pink. After this, add the tomato paste and cook it with the beef for about 2 minutes.
Add the remaining ingredients: Then add all the seasonings, diced and crushed tomatoes, beans, chicken stock, and the optional maple syrup. Stir all the ingredients together.
Simmer: Partly cover the pot, and cook on a gentle simmer for 25 minutes. Stirring occasionally.
Serve: When the chili is finished, taste it, and season with any additional salt until the flavor is just right. Then serve with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
