Savory Pork Chili

Directions

Step 1

In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the cubed pork and sear until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the pork and set aside.

Step 2

In the same pot, add the chopped onion, garlic, bell pepper, and jalapeño. Sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 3

Return the browned pork to the pot, and stir in the diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, kidney beans, black beans, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Pour in the broth and stir well to combine all the ingredients. Bring the chili to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours, stirring occasionally, until the pork is tender.

Step 5

Once cooked, taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. If the chili is too thick, add more broth to reach your desired consistency.

Step 6

Serve the chili hot, garnished with fresh cilantro.
