  • 1/2 onion, finely diced (75 g)
  • 1 jalapeno, seeded and minced (20 g)

  Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it into small pieces with a wooden spoon, for about 5-7 minutes.
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (14 g)
  • 1 lb ground beef (450 g)

  Add the diced onion and minced jalapeño to the pot with the beef. Sauté for 5 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
• Step 4
  Add all seasonings including chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the meat mixture and stir to coat evenly. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  • 1 tbsp chili powder (8 g)
  • 2 tsp ground cumin (5 g)
  • 1 tsp paprika (2.50 g)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder (3 g)

  Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover partially with a lid and simmer for at least 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. For deeper flavor, simmer for 45-60 minutes.
