Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs ground beef or ground turkey
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups beef or chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Large pot or Dutch oven
  • skillet
  • cutting board
  • Chef's knife
  • wooden spoon
  • measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, brown the ground beef or turkey over medium-high heat, making sure to crumble it as it cooks.
  2. Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pot and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the diced tomatoes, black beans, and pinto beans. Pour in the broth and heavy cream, then add the chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  4. Bring the soup to a simmer and let it cook for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the flavors have melded and the soup has thickened.
  5. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  6. Serve hot, garnished with your favorite toppings such as shredded cheese, sour cream, or chopped cilantro.

Notes

For a thicker, more hearty soup, you can mash some of the beans against the side of the pot to release their starch. Adjust the spices to your personal taste preferences. This soup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
