Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook the ground pork over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
-
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot with the pork. Sauté for another 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent and fragrant.
-
Stir in the diced apples and bell peppers, cooking for an additional 5 minutes until slightly softened.
-
Pour in the diced tomatoes and kidney beans, along with the chicken broth, chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine.
-
Bring the chili to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low and let it cook, uncovered, for about 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
-
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. If you prefer a thicker chili, you can simmer it for longer to reduce the liquid.
-
Serve the Pork Apple Chili hot, garnished with chopped cilantro, shredded cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and sliced green onions on top.
