The Keto RN Meaty Chili

Ingredients:

1 Tbsp avocado oil

1 lb spicy sausage links

1 large onion, chopped

12 cloves garlic, minced

3 Tbsp chili powder

2 tsp smoked paprika

3 Tbsp dried oregano

2 Tbsp cumin powder

1½ tsp salt,plus more to taste

1/2 tsp black pepper

1/8 tsp cayenne, optional

1 Tbsp  ground cinnamon

1 lb ground beef

1 (6-oz) can tomato paste

2 (14.5-oz) cans diced tomatoes

2 (14.5-oz) cans tomato sauce

2 bell peppers (different colors), chopped

sour cream for serving (optional)

chopped cilantro, for serving (optional)

Instructions:

• Add the oil to a large pot. Add the sausage links and cook over medium heat until seared on all sides and cooked through, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove the sausage from the pan and set aside to cool, reserving the oil in the pot. When the sausage is cool, use kitchen shears or a knife to cut the links into bite-size pieces.

• Add the onion and garlic to the pot with the reserved oil from the sausage. If your pot needs a little more oil, add more. Stir and cook the onion and garlic over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Add the chili powder, paprika, oregano, cumin, salt, pepper, cayenne, and cinnamon and cook until fragrant. Add the ground beef and cook until the meat is brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Mix in the tomato paste, diced tomatoes, and tomato sauce, then add the bell peppers and cooked sausage. Cover and simmer over low heat for 1 hour. Add more salt to taste. Serve with sour cream and chopped cilantro.
