Steps

1. 1

   Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain excess fat.

2. 2

   Add chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot; cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

3. 3

   Stir in chili powder, cumin, and smoked paprika. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

4. 4

   Pour in crushed tomatoes and beef broth. Add kidney beans and black beans. Bring to a simmer.

5. 5

   Reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for at least 1 hour, stirring occasionally, to allow flavors to meld. The longer it simmers, the better.

6. 6

   Season with salt and pepper to taste before serving. Serve hot with your favorite toppings like shredded cheese, sour cream, or corn chips.
