Chili. It’s what’s for supper.
This Black Bean Chili is perfect for a weeknight supper. Hearty and it doesn’t have to simmer all dad gum day before it tastes good either.
I don’t know about you, but that’s my kind of meal.
Don’t get me wrong, I love slow cook chili that simmers and bubbles on the stove for the afternoon and slow cooker chili is absolutely a favorite.
But, let’s be real.
There are many days that our clock strikes 4 o’clock and I haven’t started anything for supper. These are the days that I love to pull out a recipe like this without missing a beat in flavor and taste.
It’s just good to have a good chili recipe in your arsenal for such nights.
Here’s my recipe for Weeknight Black Bean Chili. It’s a keeper.
- 3 slices bacon, diced
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 pound ground beef
- 3 dashes Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 can (16-ounce) crushed tomatoes
- 1 can (16-ounce) black beans
- sour cream
- grated cheddar cheese
- Add diced bacon to a heavy-bottomed stockpot over medium heat. Cook until crispy, then add in onions and garlic and cook until tender. Add ground beef and cook until done. Drain off any grease and place ingredients back into the stockpot over medium heat.
- Add seasonings, tomatoes and black beans. Reduce to a simmer and allow to simmer for about 20 minutes.
- Serve with sour cream and grated cheddar cheese.
Enjoy!

I really love a good chili recipe. Especially when the leaves start turning colors and the nights get cooler. Just the perfect thing to warm you up! Delicious!
WOW does this chili look good! Yes to black beans and yes to weeknight chili for autumn!!
I have everything to make this for dinner, except for the ground beef. Bummer! Printing it up for next week. Looks tasty.
This looks amazing, Robyn! I much prefer black beans over any other bean, love the idea of adding them to chili!
I love easy weeknight suppers. This looks so delicious and filling. I love that it takes very little time to make such a flavorful dish!
I love how fast this is – and it sounds like it is packed full of flavor!!
Looks yummy!
I made this tonight. I love that it was easy to make, didn’t take all day to cook and tasted great! Oh, and it made just the right amount. You know how sometimes when you make a batch of chili and it makes almost too much? Not this one. Thank you sharing.
I made this for dinner tonight, and my family enjoyed it. It is very easy to put together. It has less tomato flavor than my crock pot chili, but is still very tasty.
this looks mighty tasty! i’m totalyl going to try it! thank you for sharing. pinned!
I made this for dinner tonight and it is delish! I added a bit of cayenne to bring a little heat, but other than that this recipe is perfect as is!
So glad you loved it, Courtney!
Exceptional!!!
Made this for my Church’s Super Bowl Chilli cookoff and I won Most Flavorful out of about 20 entries. This is a good mild chilli for kids and adults.
YAY! Congratulations, Mike!
