How to cook deliciously - Chili Con Carne

1. Stage

In a large dutch oven over medium-high heat, heat oil. Season beef with salt and pepper. Working in batches, sear meat until golden brown, adjusting heat as necessary. Transfer to a plate.

2. Stage

Lower heat to medium and cook onion and garlic until softened and deeply golden, about 5 minutes, scraping up caramelized bits with a wooden spoon. Add tomato paste to pot and cook, mixing constantly until it is darkened in color, about 2 to 3 minutes.

3. Stage

Deglaze pot with 4 cups water and add oregano, chili powder, cumin, seared meat, and tomatoes. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer and cook until meat is tender and falling apart, about 2 hours, adding more water as needed. 

4. Stage

Stir in sugar and vinegar and season with salt and pepper, if needed.

5. Stage

Serve with sour cream, cheese, green onions, limes, and chips.
