Notes
Adjust the amount of broth depending on how thick you like your chili. I prefer a more thick and hearty chili, so I generally only add about 1/4 cup of broth, but feel free to add more if you prefer a thinner chili.
Adapt the level of spice according to your personal preferences. If you want a mild chili, skip the cayenne or only add a small pinch. For more heat, add in extra cayenne.
