Delicious Pork Chili Recipe - Hearty American Main Course

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 2 lbs pork shoulder (cut into cubes)
  • 1 cup onion (chopped)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 can diced tomatoes (14.5 oz)
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 can kidney beans (drained and rinsed)
  • 1 can black beans (drained and rinsed)
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt (to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper (to taste)
  • 1 cup bell pepper (chopped)
  • 1 cup corn (frozen or canned)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions and minced garlic, sauté until soft.

    Make sure not to burn the garlic for better flavor.
  2. Brown the Pork

    Add pork shoulder cubes to the pot, season with salt and pepper, and brown on all sides.

    Do this in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pot.
  3. Add the Remaining Ingredients

    Stir in diced tomatoes, chicken broth, beans, bell pepper, corn, and spices. Mix well.

    Adjust the seasoning according to your taste preferences.
  4. Simmer the Chili

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low and let it simmer for at least 1.5 hours.

    The longer it simmers, the better the flavors will meld.
  5. Serve the Chili

    Once done, taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot with your favorite toppings.

    Consider serving with cornbread or over rice.
