Instructions

1.      Heat olive oil in a large and deep non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. 
2.      Add onion and saute 3 minutes, then add garlic and saute 30 seconds longer. Pour onions into a 6 or 7 quart slow cooker.
3.      Return skillet to medium-high eat, add beef and cook stirring occasionally until beef has browned.
4.      Drain most of fat from beef, leaving about 2 Tbsp in with beef (this is optional, I think it ads flavor but you can drain it all if you'd prefer). Pour browned beef into slow cooker.
5.      Stir in diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, beef broth, chili powder, cumin, paprika, cocoa powder, sugar, coriander and season mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
6.      Cover with lid and cook on low heat for 5 - 6 hours.
7.      Stir in dark and light red kidney beans and allow to heat through, about 2 minutes. Serve warm with desired toppings.
