Rock your Socks Stovetop 30 minute Chili

This chili took me about 30 minutes to put together. It is also absolutely delicious. Now I have to remind my readers that I do not like beans. Yes you hear that correctly, I do not like beans! Never have and never will. So my chili is beanless. However, if you want beans all you have to do is add a can or two of your favorite beans such as pinto or kidney. It is as easy as that.

I started off by dicing 1 jalapeno. I removed the seeds, but if you want extra spices leave the seeds.  I then diced an Anaheim green chili pepper (also remove the seeds) as well as a green bell pepper, a red bell pepper and a large white onion. I added that to a pot with 2 table spoons of butter and began to sautee it.

While that was cooking I browned 2 lbs of hamburger meat. Be sure to drain out the grease! I came across this cajun seasoning and I have been using it for almost everything. It is really good. I added this to the meat as I browned it.

Once the veggies were done cooking I added a can of tomato paste, 2 cans of petite diced tomatoes, 2 tablespoons of crushed red pepper, 1 tablespoon of cumin, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder and stirred well together. Next I added my ground beef and 1 jar of marinara. Stir well. Add additional seasonings to it as you see fit.
