Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 lb diced beef* see notes
- 8 ounces pork chorizo
- 6 slices bacon chopped
- 1 medium red onion about 100g, diced
- 1 medium jalapeno pepper diced
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 can diced tomatoes with chilies 10 ounces
- 1 can fire roasted diced tomatoes 14.5 ounces
- 1 can black soybeans 15 ounces
- 1/2 cup chicken or beef broth
Keto Chili Spice Mix
- 2.5 tbsp chili powder
- 2 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp paprika smoked recommended
- .5 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/2 tsp cocoa powder
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Combine keto chili spice mix ingredients.
- In a large pan over medium heat, brown the ground beef and chorizo. Drain excess fat and set aside.
- Set your Instant Pot to Sauté and add the chopped bacon. Cook until crisp, stirring often, then remove and set aside. Reserve the bacon fat in the pot.
- Add onion to reserved bacon fat and cook until softened, 2-3 minutes. If there isn't enough bacon fat, you can add a splash of olive oil.
- Add jalapeno and garlic to the onion and continue to sauté, stirring often, for 2-3 minutes.
- Season diced beef with salt, pepper, and about 1tsp of the keto chili spice mix. Add seasoned beef to the Instant Pot with the veggies to sear. Cook for about 4 minutes, stirring to brown on all sides.
- Add broth to Instant Pot and deglaze the bottom of the pot.
- Add remaining chili ingredients to the Instant Pot: the beef/chorizo mixture, tomatoes, beans, spice mix, and bacon. Reserve some bacon for garnish if desired. Stir to combine
- Secure the Instant Pot lid and set valve to "sealing." Pressure cook on High for 25 minutes. Quick release pressure manually by opening the vent, or allow to naturally release (about 15 minutes).
- Stir and adjust with additional seasoning if desired. For a thicker chili, simmer using the Sauté setting for about 10 minutes to reduce the liquid.
- Serve topped with cheese, sour cream, diced avocado, or other toppings of choice.
Notes
- *You may be able to find "diced beef" sold as steak tips or "beef for tacos." You can also simply cut beef stew meat into bite sized pieces. Using all ground beef is always an option too!
- Spice Level: This keto Instant Pot chili has a bit of heat, but isn't too spicy. You can up the heat level by adding an additional jalapeno pepper, increasing the amount of cayenne, and/or using spicy chorizo.
- Storage and Reheating: Store keto chili with beans refrigerated in a sealed container. Reheat in the microwave or warm in a saucepan over medium heat.
