Preparation

Step 1

In a large skillet, cook the beef over medium-high heat, using a wooden spoon to break up the meat, until browned. Remove to a paper towel lined plate to drain.

Reduce the heat to medium. Add the onion and green pepper and sauté for 7-8 minutes, until tender. Stir in the garlic. Return the beef to the pan, and stir in the chili powder, salt and pepper. Cook one minute. Stir in the lentils (optional), tomato sauce, water, ketchup, brown sugar, Dijon, Worcestershire, vinegar and celery seed. Mix well. Reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer 15 minutes. Serve on a bun.
