Instructions:
-
Brown Ground Beef: In a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat, brown the ground beef, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks. Add the chopped onion to the pot and continue cooking until the onions are translucent and fragrant.
-
Add Beans and Tomatoes: Once the ground beef and onions are cooked, add in the cans of chili beans, hot chili beans, and stewed tomatoes. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
-
Season: Sprinkle chili powder over the mixture according to your desired level of spiciness. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir everything together until the seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the chili.
-
Simmer: Allow the chili to simmer for at least 5 minutes to let the flavors meld together. If you have more time, you can let it simmer for up to 30 minutes, which will further enhance the taste. The longer it simmers, the more flavorful it will become.
-
Adjust Spiciness: Keep in mind that each variation of canned tomatoes and chili beans can affect the spiciness of the chili. Feel free to adjust the amount of chili powder and other seasonings to suit your taste preferences.
-
Serve: Once the chili is heated through and has reached your desired level of thickness, it’s ready to serve! Ladle it into bowls and garnish with your favorite toppings such as shredded cheese, sour cream, diced avocado, or chopped cilantro. Serve with tortilla chips or warm bread on the side for a complete meal.
