- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 pound ground beef (or turkey)
- 28 ounces canned diced tomatoes (with juices)
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 15 ounces canned kidney beans, drained and rinsed
- 15 ounces canned black beans, drained and rinsed

Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, until softened.
Stir in the diced green, red, and yellow bell peppers, cooking for another 3-4 minutes until the peppers start to soften.
Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
Push the vegetables to the side of the pot and add the ground beef (or turkey) to the center. Cook for 7-8 minutes, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and fully cooked.
Stir in the chili powder, ground cumin, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the meat and vegetables in the spices.
Add the canned diced tomatoes with their juices, tomato paste, kidney beans, black beans, and beef (or vegetable) broth to the pot. Stir to combine.
Bring the chili to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Add more salt or chili powder for extra flavor or heat.
Serve the chili hot, topped with optional toppings like shredded cheese, sour cream, chopped cilantro, or diced avocado, if desired.
