Hearty Chili Con Carne

Instructions:

1. Sauté the Aromatics: In a large skillet or pot, cook the onion and garlic over medium heat until softened.
2. Brown the Beef: Add the ground beef to the pot and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned.
3. Simmer the Chili: Stir in the green chilies, cumin, coriander, paprika, cayenne pepper, bell peppers, tomatoes, and beef broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 2-3 hours, or until the flavors have blended and the chili has thickened.
4. Add the Beans: Stir in the drained beans and heat through for an additional 10-15 minutes.
5. Serve: Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve hot with rice and lime wedges.
6. Tip: For a spicier chili, increase the amount of cayenne pepper or add a jalapeño pepper.
