- •1.25 pounds hot Italian sausage, casings removed
- •1.25 pounds mild Italian sausage, casings removed
- •1 onion, chopped
- •salt to taste
- •2 tablespoons ancho chile powder
- •1 teaspoon paprika
- •1 teaspoon ground cumin
- •1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- •0.5 teaspoon chipotle chile powder

Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Cook and stir hot and mild Italian sausage, onion, and a pinch of salt in hot oil until sausage is browned and crumbly, and most of the liquid is evaporated, about 10 minutes.
- Stir in ancho chile powder, paprika, cumin, black pepper, chipotle chile powder, and oregano; sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
- Pour in water and tomato purée; bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook at a steady simmer until sausage is tender, about 45 minutes. Add more water as needed and skim any fat that floats to the top.
- Stir in beans and bell peppers. Simmer until vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes. Season with salt.
