Carnivore Chili Recipe
This Carnivore Chili is a hearty, flavorful dish that’s perfect for those following a carnivore diet. Packed with high-quality meats and rich spices, it’s a satisfying and filling meal. The combination of ground beef and Cacique pork chorizo gives this chili a savory depth of flavor, while the collagen peptides provide a boost of protein and support joint health. Here’s how to prepare this delicious, low-carb chili.
Ingredients:
- 1 lb 80/20 lean ground beef
- 1 roll Cacique pork chorizo
- 1 cup beef stock (or beef bone broth for added nutrients)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
- 1/2 tsp ground coriander
- 1/2 tsp chili powder
- 10 grams collagen peptide powder (optional, for added protein and joint health)
Instructions:
- Prepare the meat: In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the pot over medium heat. Add the ground beef and pork chorizo to the pot. Use a wooden spoon or spatula to break the meat apart as it cooks. Stir occasionally to ensure the meat cooks evenly and becomes browned. This should take about 6-8 minutes.
- Add the spices: Once the meat is fully cooked and browned, add the salt, cumin, black pepper, ground coriander, and chili powder to the pot. Stir well to evenly coat the meat with the spices. Let the spices cook with the meat for 1-2 minutes to release their flavors.
- Add the liquid: Pour in the beef stock or beef bone broth and stir to combine. This will add moisture and help create a flavorful base for your chili. If you’re using collagen peptide powder, sprinkle it in at this point and stir until it’s completely dissolved into the liquid.
- Simmer: Bring the chili to a simmer over medium-low heat. Let it simmer uncovered for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally. This allows the flavors to meld together and the chili to thicken slightly. If you prefer a thicker consistency, you can let it simmer a bit longer.
- Adjust seasoning: Taste the chili and adjust the seasoning if needed. If you prefer more heat, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper or some additional chili powder.
- Serve: Once the chili has reached your desired consistency, remove it from the heat. Ladle it into bowls and serve immediately. This chili is delicious on its own or paired with a side of carnivore-friendly bread or other meat-based dishes.
Notes:
- The collagen peptide powder is optional but adds a nutritional boost. It’s flavorless and dissolves easily into the broth, making it a great addition for those seeking extra protein or joint health support.
- If you prefer a spicier chili, feel free to increase the chili powder or add other hot seasonings like cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
