How to Make Chili Con Carne In A Flash

  1. Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, chopped onion, chili powder, and minced garlic. Cook, breaking up the beef with a spoon, until the onion is tender and the beef is browned, about 8-10 minutes.
  2. Drain off any excess grease from the skillet.
  3. Stir in the drained and rinsed kidney beans, diced tomatoes and green chilies, water, and apple cider vinegar.
  4. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  5. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld.
  6. Serve hot, over cooked rice if desired. Garnish with your favorite chili toppings, such as shredded cheese, sour cream, or chopped cilantro.
