Cookware
can opener · chef's knife · colander · cutting board · garlic press (optional) · measuring cups · measuring spoons · medium saucepan · mixing bowls · stirring spoon
Directions
- 1. Wash all produce, trim the green beans, and cut them into 1/2-inch pieces; dice the peppers and onions, and mince the garlic; set green onions aside for garnish.
- 2. Heat a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, then add a little virgin coconut oil and swirl to coat the bottom.
- 3. Add the ground beef to the pan and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and crumbly; transfer to a plate, leaving the rendered juices behind.
- 4. In the same pan, add the onions, peppers, green beans, and minced garlic; cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables soften, about 5–7 minutes.
- 5. Return the beef to the pan and season with chili powder, salt, and black pepper; mix well to combine everything.
- 6. Stir in the diced tomatoes; bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 5–10 minutes to meld the flavors.
- 7. Spoon the chili into bowls, top with dollops of yogurt, and scatter the green onions over the top before serving.
Two tips
- Prep in advance by chopping peppers, onions, and green onions earlier in the day for faster assembly.
- If you don’t have yogurt, you can skip the topping or use a small dollop of sour cream as an alternative.
