  1. Chop the onion, dice the courgette, mince the garlic, and drain and rinse the kidney beans.
  2. Heat a small amount of olive oil in a pot over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned. Remove and set aside, leaving any fat in the pot.
  3. In the same pot, cook the onion and garlic until softened. Add the courgette and cook for a few more minutes.
  4. Add back the beef, along with the diced tomatoes, tomato paste, chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, and beef broth. Adjust thickness with more broth or water if necessary.
  5. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer, partially covered, for about 45-60 minutes. Adjust the seasoning as it cooks.
  6. Stir in the kidney beans in the last 15 minutes of cooking.
  7. Taste and adjust for salt, pepper, or sugar if it's too acidic.
  8. Enjoy your single serving of chili with any desired garnishes.
