Ingredients

• 3 whole Poblano peppers
• 1 pound Ground beef
• 1 medium Yellow onion
• 3 whole Garlic cloves
• 28 ounces Canned diced tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
• 15 ounces Canned black beans, rinsed and drained
• 15 ounces Canned kidney beans, rinsed and drained
• 1 cup Beef or chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons Chili powder
• 2 teaspoons Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the broiler on high. Place the poblano peppers on a baking sheet and broil them for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skins are charred and blistered.

Step 2

Transfer the roasted poblano peppers to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel. Let them steam for 10 minutes to loosen the skins.

Step 3

Peel the skins off the poblano peppers, remove the stems and seeds, and chop them into small pieces. Set aside.

Step 4

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat and transfer the beef to the crock pot.

Step 5

In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute. Add this mixture to the crock pot.

Step 6

To the crock pot, add the chopped poblano peppers, canned diced tomatoes (with their juices), tomato paste, black beans, kidney beans, and broth.

Step 7

Stir in the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper.

Step 8

Cover the crock pot with its lid and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, stirring occasionally.

Step 9

Taste the chili and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot with your favorite toppings, such as shredded cheese, sour cream, chopped cilantro, or tortilla chips.
