  1. Rinse the pinto beans and place them in a large bowl with 2 cups of water. Cover and refrigerate for at least 8 hours.

  2. Drain the beans and set aside. Heat the oil in a dutch oven over medium heat.

  3. Add the onion and bell peppers to the hot oil and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, about 3 minutes.

  4. Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 10 seconds.

  5. Add the tomato paste, chili powder, cayenne, cumin, oregano, 1 tsp salt, and ½ tsp pepper. Stir and cook for 1 minute.

  6. Pour in the diced tomatoes, vegetable broth and drained pinto beans, bring to a boil.

  7. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 1 ½ hours.

  8. Remove the lid and cook until beans are tender and chili has thickened 15 to 30 minutes.

  9. Stir in the corn and jalapenos and cook for about 5 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  10. Serve topped with cheese, sour cream, avocado, fresh cilantro and tortilla chips on the side.
