Prepare the Ingredients
Gather all ingredients and chop the onion and mince the garlic.

Cook the Beef
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes.

Add Onion and Garlic
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Season the Mixture
Stir in the chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the beef and vegetables.
5
Incorporate Tomato Sauce and Water
Pour in the tomato sauce and water. Stir until combined and bring to a simmer.

Simmer
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
