The Best Black Bean Beef Chili Recipe

By Amanda Sanders


There are so many great recipes you can enjoy in, but sometimes you simply have not enough time to prepare some of them. So, here you will find one black bean beef chili recipe you can prepare in one hour or so, and another one, that takes more time to prepare, but it's worth it. You won't be disappointed with either.

So, for preparing this lovely dish you will need two onions, finely chopped, approximately four garlic cloves, depending on your taste, chopped or minced, four nice slices of smoked bacon, one pound of ground beef, one can of black beans and twice as much of peeled, crushed plum tomatoes, one teaspoon of chili powder, cumin, unsweetened cocoa and dry oregano, salt and pepper, olive oil, one tablespoon of sweet paprika powder and a cup of good beef broth.

First, you need a large pan, half of a total amount of olive oil and bacon and garlic. Brown the bacon, add garlic and then remove these ingredients from your pan. Add the rest of the oil, add onions and cook until soft. After that, add chopped sweet peppers and salt and cook for another few minutes. Now you can add ground beef, cook for ten minutes and add other ingredients, including fried bacon and garlic.

After a few minutes, add other ingredients and spices and leave everything cooking on low heat for twenty minutes or so. Add more salt or more other ingredients if you, for example, like your chili to be really hot. Serve with fresh sliced vegetables and green salad, tortilla or toasted bread. Some people prefer serving this specialty with grated hard cheese and sour cream instead.

The first recipe is really delicious, but some people say there is nothing like slowly cooked one. You might need more time, but it is definitely worth it. Maybe you should consider preparing double size, and keep a bowl or two of this delicious dish in your freezer. For larger group of people this amount will probably not be enough, anyway.

So, for this slow cooker chili you need to chop four medium sized onions, two larger carrots, one red and one green sweet pepper and at least six cloves of garlic. You can use two pounds of diced or ground meat. You also need six slices of good smoked bacon, three cans crushed plum tomatoes, beef broth, cumin, oregano and cocoa, one teaspoon each and two teaspoons of hot chili powder, as well as one tablespoon, or two, of nice smoked paprika powder, salt, pepper, olive oil and, at the end, a spoon of red wine.

First, you have to fry your onions on olive oil in some large pan. When yellow, add carrots, chopped peppers, salt and garlic. After that, you can add meat and bacon. When it is brown, add spices and broth, beans and tomatoes. Put everything into the slow cooker and let it simmer for another two hours or so. Everything should be soft and tender.

It all depends on your personal taste, but you can also grease one large pan, spread some cooked chili on, cover it with crushed plum tomatoes from a can, sour cream and grated hard cheese, and bake it in the oven for maybe 30 to 40 minutes, and you will get another interesting dish you will certainly find to be delicious. It's great served with fresh vegetables and mash potatoes.
