Ingredients
Scale
2 cans Black Beans, drained and rinsed
2 tablespoons Olive Oil
1 large Onion, chopped
3 cloves Garlic, minced
1 red Bell Pepper, chopped
1 green Bell Pepper, chopped
1 large Carrot, diced
1 can Diced Tomatoes, with juice
2 cups Vegetable Broth
2 tablespoons Chili Powder
1 tablespoon Cumin
1 teaspoon Oregano
Salt and Pepper, to taste
Optional: red pepper flakes or diced jalapeños, sweet corn, zucchini, mushrooms, for added flavor.
Instructions
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until it becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute, allowing the garlic to release its fragrant aroma.
Add the chopped bell peppers and diced carrot to the pot. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.
Incorporate the canned diced tomatoes (with juice), black beans, vegetable broth, chili powder, cumin, and oregano into the pot. Stir everything together until well combined.
Bring the chili to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for at least 20 minutes, allowing all the flavors to meld together.
After simmering, taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as necessary. If you prefer a thicker chili, let it simmer uncovered for an additional 10 minutes.
Once ready, serve the chili in bowls and garnish with your choice of toppings.
