Notes
- Sometimes chili can be overly spicy for those with a lower heat tolerance. You can lower the spice level of chili by omitting the green chiles and using less chili powder.
- On the other hand, if you want to increase the spice level, add in extra green chiles and chili powder. You can also add in a little cayenne pepper.
- Although it seems like simmering it is just an extra step, it really adds a lot more flavor to the entire chili.
- If you're a "no beans" person when it comes to chili, feel free to omit them entirely.
- Be sure to use a large pot or Dutch oven for this. That way you're able to stir and simmer without any issues once the other ingredients have been added.
