Ingredients Needed For This Chili Recipe

Ingredients to make steak chili.
  • Sirloin Steak – creates tender chunks of meat in your bowl of chili.
  • Onion – white, yellow or even red will work.
  • Garlic
  • Green Bell Peppers – but feel free to use any sweet bell pepper you like.
  • Canned Tomatoes – I used chunky tomatoes with chilies and regular diced canned tomatoes.

Suggestions/Recipe Tips

Meat – Sirloin steak can be replaced with another cut of steak. Round steak is a good choice. You can even cut up a small roast. Of course, it can also be made with ground beef, a favourite for classic chili.

Spices – You can make this as spicy as you like. Add more chili powder or a combination of different chili powders. Jalapenos are a great addition, and red chili flakes will heat things up too.

Garnish – So many options to top your bowl of chili. Cheese, sour cream, Greek yogurt, chopped avocado, green onions, and crumbled nacho chips.

    We can eat chili any time of year but there is no better time when there is a chill in the air. Your chunky chili with peppers looks delicious. So rich and full of meat — Hubby loves his meat. We enjoy trying new recipes — we’ll have to give your chili recipe a try. I’m getting hungry looking at it.
