How to Make Mini's Chicken Chili

  1. Brown 1 lb ground chicken in a large pot over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Add 1 large onion, chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in 1 (15-ounce) can of diced tomatoes, undrained, 1 (15-ounce) can of kidney beans, rinsed and drained, 1 (15-ounce) can of pinto beans, rinsed and drained, and 1 (10-ounce) can of diced tomatoes and green chilies (like Rotel), undrained.
  4. Add 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for extra heat), 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  5. Pour in 1 cup of chicken broth and bring to a simmer.
  6. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the flavors have melded and the chili has thickened slightly.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with your favorite toppings such as shredded cheese, sour cream, and chopped cilantro.
