Cook Time 3 hours
Total Time 3 hours 25 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 Tbsp Butter
  • 2 lbs. of Ground Beef
  • 2 Cups of Diced White Onion
  • 1 Cup of Diced Red Peppers
  • 4 Cloves Garlic chopped
  • 2 tsp. Chilli Powder
  • 1 jar of Whole Foods Chipotle Salsa
  • 1 Tbsp. Smoked Paprika
  • 2 tsp Ground Cumin
  • 1 tsp Ground Coriander
  • 1 Cup of Dried Red Kidney Beans
  • 1 Tbsp. Garlic Powder
  • 1 Tbsp. Salt
  • 1 Cup of Chicken or Beef Broth

Method
 

  1. Cook your beans separately, it will take about 2 to 3 hours to cook them. Cook them enough so they are cooked through but you don't want them to mushy. Once they are cooked drain most of the water and set aside.
  2. Heat your butter until it foams in a large pot. Then add your onions, garlic, cumin, coriander, 1 tsp. of chili powder. Once they brown, add your ground beef. Brown the meat all over, as you cook the meat add the rest of your seasoning and mix the seasoning into the meat. Once the meat is browned, add in your broth. Stir for about 15 minutes. Your heat should be around medium low.
  3. Now add your salsa and red kidney beans, cook on low for another 2 hours.
  4. Serve with some tasty cornbread and sour cream.
  5. Enjoy!
