Steps:
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a Dutch oven or large pot over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until just browned, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate with a slotted spoon.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly golden, about 10 minutes.
- Add the jalapeno and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Add the chili powder, cumin, paprika, cayenne, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the tomato paste. Cook, stirring frequently, until coated and fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Stir in the beef broth and crushed tomatoes and bring to a boil over high heat. Stir in the cooked ground beef and any accumulated liquid, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer the chili, partially covered, until the beef is tender and the sauce is slightly thickened, about 30 minutes.
- Stir in the beans and their liquid and simmer uncovered until the beans are softened and the chili is thickened, about 30 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper.
- Top with sour cream, Cheddar and scallions. Serve with tortilla chips.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a skillet and saute onions until translucent. Add garlic and saute until it begins to turn golden brown, being careful not to burn it. Add sausage and ground beef and cook until the meats are brown. Drain off any fat. Season with cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Add beans and tomatoes and simmer 30 minutes.
Tips:
- Choose the right type of chili peppers: Different chili peppers have different levels of heat and flavor. For a mild chili, use mild chili peppers such as Anaheim or poblano peppers. For a medium chili, use medium-heat chili peppers such as jalapeƱo peppers. For a hot chili, use hot chili peppers such as habanero or scotch bonnet peppers.
- Soak dried chili peppers before using them: Soaking dried chili peppers in hot water for 30 minutes to an hour will help to rehydrate them and release their flavor.
- Use fresh ingredients whenever possible: Fresh ingredients will give your chili the best flavor. If you can't find fresh ingredients, use frozen or canned ingredients instead.
- Don't overcrowd the pot: When you're cooking the chili, don't overcrowd the pot. This will prevent the chili from cooking evenly.
- Let the chili simmer for a long time: The longer you simmer the chili, the more flavorful it will be. Simmer the chili for at least 2 hours, or even longer if you have time.
- Season the chili to taste: Once the chili is cooked, season it to taste with salt, pepper, and other spices. You can also add a little bit of sugar or honey to balance out the heat of the chili.
