Low Carb Chili - Induction Legal

Ingredients: 

2 medium onions - peeled and chopped
6 cloves garlic - peeled and minced
1 fresh jalapeno or serrano pepper, chopped - (optional for heat)
olive oil, butter or virgin coconut oil for sauteeing
3 pounds of 80% lean ground beef or chili meat
6 tablespoons of Mexican chili powder
2 tablespoons of ground cumin
salt and pepper to taste
3 cups beef bouillon made from Knorrs cubes or granuals



Heat the fat in a skillet over medium-low heat and add the chopped onions, minced garlic and jalapeno. Sauté them until the everything is limp.

Add the ground beef and raise the heat up to medium. Brown the beef well. While browning, add the chili powder, the cumin and the salt and pepper.

After the beef is browned, add the bouillion. Let it simmer down to the consistency you like. If time is not a factor, cover it and let it simmer longer. The longer you cook it, the more time the flavors have to blend.

This recipe probably has around 6 grams of carbohydrate or less per serving.

Serve it topped with shredded cheese or more chopped onions if you like.

Variation: If you are not on induction, replace 2 cups of the bouillion with 1 can (around 16 ounces) of Italian style chopped tomatoes. This will raise the carb content a little, but it's never been enough to throw me out of ketosis.
