    Step 2: Brown the Beef

    Add the ground beef to the pot and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.

    Stir in chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Add the diced tomatoes and kidney beans, then pour in the water or beef broth.

    Bring the chili to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
