Notes
– For a thicker chili, let it simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes.
– Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to control the heat level.
– Try using a mixture of ground beef and ground turkey for a leaner option.
– Leftover chili can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
