Homemade Chili

Let’s cook a homemade chili in our Multipot. This is a flavorful recipe with a perfect balance between lusciousness and heat.

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
• 6 slices bacon, cut into small pieces
• 1/2 diced onion
• 4 cloves minced garlic
• 1 minced jalapeno
• 4 minced small carrots
• 2 1/2 tablespoon chili powder
• 2 tablespoon cumin
• 1 tablespoon oregano
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 3 tablespoons tomato paste
• 1 can fire roasted crushed tomatoes
• 2 cans beans, rinsed and drained (we are using pinto beans)
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

• Fry the bacon pieces until crispy on a fry pan and set them aside. Pour off most of the bacon fat, but keep 2 tablespoons.
• Mix the onion, garlic, jalapeno, and carrots on the pan with the bacon fat. Sauté until soft.
• Add the ground beef and sautéed mixture to the multipot until beef is cooked through. Make sure it is moist and not dried out, if dried add some broth.
• Add the tomato paste. Sauté for 2-3 minutes.
• Add tomatoes, beans, broth, and bacon. Bring to a boil. Lower the heat and let simmer for 30-40 minutes, while stirring.
• Top with your favorite toppings. We used cheddar cheese, green onions and sour cream!
