Directions for 30 Minute Meat and Bean Chili
1
Add oil to pot and add meat, breaking it up into pieces while it cooks. When it is almost cooked through, add onions and peppers. When vegetables begin to look transluscent, add the garlic and stir for a minute, careful not to overcook the garlic.2
Add diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, and all drained beans to the meat mixture and stir well. Add the basil, chili powder and cumin. Add frozen corn and let chili simmer on stove for at least 10min until ready to eat! This chili is ready to eat once the corn has thawed but as with all casserole-like dishes, the longer you let it simmer, the better the flavors blend.Tip
If you want it spicy, add a few dashes of hot sauce such as Tobasco or Frank's Red Hot.
