1 tablespoon of olive oil
1 large sweet onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, stemmed, seeded and diced
1 red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded and diced
4 tablespoons of jalapeño chilies, seeded and finely chopped
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 1/4 pound of mild Italian sausage, with casings removed
1 1/4 pounds of hot Italian sausage, with casings removed
3 tablespoons of chili powder
1 tablespoons ground cumin
1 1/2 teaspoons of dried oregano
1 teaspoon of sweet paprika
1 tablespoon of sugar
1 (28 oz.) can of diced tomatoes in juice
1 (8 oz.) can of tomato sauce
1 (14 oz.) can of beef broth
3 (15 oz.) cans of kidney beans, drained
