Recipe View Serve: To serve, ladle the chili into bowls. Garnish with chopped green onions and cilantro. Top with a dollop of sour cream.

For a richer flavor, consider using fire-roasted diced tomatoes.
Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to control the spiciness of the chili.
If you prefer a thicker chili, you can mash some of the kidney beans against the side of the pot.
This chili is even better the next day, as the flavors have more time to develop.
Consider adding a can of drained corn for added sweetness and texture.
