👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add ground ostrich and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
2. Add diced onion, bell pepper, and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables soften.
3. Stir in chili powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, dried oregano, and cayenne pepper. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
4. Pour in the diced tomatoes and beef broth, then add the rinsed kidney beans. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
5. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 30 minutes, or longer for richer flavor. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
6. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Serve hot, garnished with your favorite toppings like shredded cheese, sour cream, or fresh cilantro.
