Arizona Desert Chili

Recipe Ingredients

2 tablespoons	30ml	Vegetable oil
3		Garlic cloves - chopped
2		Onions - chopped
1		Green bell peppers - chopped
3 lbs	1362g / 48oz	Beef
1 teaspoon	5ml	Ground cumin
1 teaspoon	5ml	Ground oregano
3 tablespoons	45ml	Chili powder
10		Tomatoes - peeled and chopped
2		Jalapeno peppers - optional
1 can		Beer

Recipe Instructions

Heat oil in a large heavy skillet. Add garlic, onions and green pepper. Saute until soft, about 5-7 minutes. Add beef and lightly brown on all surfaces. Drain off some of the fat if a lot has accumulated. Lean beef trimmed of all fat should not have an excess amount, however.

Add remaining ingredients and simmer for 1 hour or slightly longer. Put a cover on skillet during cooking time, and slightly tilt it so steam can escape. Check often and stir to prevent sticking. Skim off fat as it rises. Best if allowed to sit, tightly covered, for an hour after cooking is complete.

Hints

Have beef chopped, not ground.

Serving Ideas: Serve with cornbread or cheese biscuits.
