For a richer flavor, sauté the diced onion in a tablespoon of olive oil before adding the other ingredients. Feel free to add other vegetables to this chili, such as corn, zucchini, or carrots. This chili tastes even better the next day, as the flavors have more time to develop. If you prefer a smoother chili, use an immersion blender to partially blend the mixture after simmering.
