Method

chili
1
In a large pot or Dutch oven, brown ground beef over medium-high heat. Drain excess fat. Add diced onion, garlic, and bell pepper; cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
2
Stir in diced tomatoes, kidney beans, beef broth, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, oregano, cayenne, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for at least 30 minutes (up to 1 hour) to allow flavors to meld, stirring occasionally.
fries
3
Peel potatoes and cut into 1/2-inch thick fries. Rinse thoroughly in cold water, then pat completely dry with paper towels. (This is crucial for crispy fries).
4
If frying: Heat canola oil in a deep pot or Dutch oven to 350°F (175°C). Fry potatoes in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per batch. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Season immediately with salt.
5
If baking: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss potatoes with 2 tablespoons canola oil, salt, and pepper. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 30-40 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.
To serve
6
Pile a generous portion of hot fries onto a plate. Ladle a hearty amount of chili over the top. Garnish with sliced green onions and jalapeño slices, if desired.
