Ingredients

3 TB olive oil
2 medium onions, roughly chopped
6 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
4 bell peppers, mixed colors, seeded/roughly chopped
2 1/2 tsp kosher salt
2 1/2 tsp chili powder
2 tsp granulated sugar
2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp paprika
2 cans (28 oz. each) crushed tomatoes, with all juices
1 whole, cooked rotisserie chicken, meat shredded
2 cups good quality chicken broth
Optional for Serving:

Instructions

In a large Dutch oven or heavy pot, heat oil until hot. Add onions and garlic. Stir on medium-high heat 3 minutes or until tender. Add bell peppers, salt, chili powder, sugar, cumin, and paprika; stir 2 minutes on medium-high heat.
Increase to high heat and stir in crushed tomatoes with juices, shredded chicken, and broth. Bring to a rapid boil. Immediately cover and reduce heat to simmer for 10 minutes.
Serve with optional toppings, as desired. Chili keeps well covered and chilled for several days. (In fact, flavor intensifies wonderfully the next day.)
