For a spicier chili, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a chopped jalapeño pepper to the skillet along with the onions and garlic. If you don't have butter beans on hand, kidney beans or pinto beans make a great substitute. This chili is even better the next day! Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
