• 1 Tablespoon olive oil
• 1 large chopped onion
• 6 large garlic cloves, minced
• 2 medium jalapenos, minced
• 2 lbs ground sirloin
• 2-4 Tablespoons chili powder (adjust according to personal taste)
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• pepper to taste
• 1 16oz can diced tomatoes (make sure no sugar added)
• 2 cups chicken broth (again no sugar added)

Heat oil in heavy saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onions and garlic. Saute about 8 minutes or until onions are translucent. Add ground sirloin and cook until brown, breaking up meat with a spatula as it cooks. Add chili powder, salt, pepper, and jalapenos to the meat and onions. Stir in died tomatoes and chicken broth.

Reduce heat to low and simmer for at least 1 and a half hours.

Note: Wear gloves to mince the jalapenos. If you want your Atkin's chili a bit spicy, then mince the seeds and membranes with your jalapenos. If you want your chili milder, then remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapenos.
