with Spicy Crema and Monterey Jack Cheese
A good chili has well-seasoned beef, creamy beans, and tender vegetables. A great chili, however, has all that and comes together in one pot in under an hour. This chili is one of the greats. And once you take a bite, we can guarantee you’ll agree. Not to mention, these beefy bowls are adorned with some delicious fixings: tangy hot sauce crema and melty Monterey Jack. If you’ve got some on hand, why not crumble up some tortilla chips and sprinkle them on top for a crunch?

Add beef, Mexican Spice, Southwest Spice, salt, and pepper to same pot. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 5-7 minutes.
Stir tomato paste into pot. Cook, stirring, until dark red and combined, 1-2 minutes. Add diced tomatoes, beans and their liquid, stock concentrate, ¼ cup water, salt, and pepper; stir to combine. Bring to a simmer and cook, uncovered, until thickened, 8-10 minutes. Turn off heat. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
