  1. Brown 1 lb. of sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks.
  2. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and cook until softened and the sausage is no longer pink (about 5-7 minutes). Carefully drain off excess grease.
  3. Stir in 1 (12 oz.) can of chopped green chiles, 1 tbsp chili powder, 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp oregano, 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional), and salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Add 1 (28 oz.) can crushed tomatoes, 1 (15 oz.) can kidney beans (drained and rinsed), 1 (15 oz.) can pinto beans (drained and rinsed), and 1 cup beef broth. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and cook for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
