For a richer flavor, consider browning the ground chicken in a separate pan before adding it to the Dutch oven. Adjust the amount of jalapeños and cayenne pepper to control the spiciness of the chili. Feel free to experiment with different types of beans or add other vegetables like diced tomatoes or zucchini. Serve with your favorite toppings such as shredded cheese, chopped cilantro, avocado, or a dollop of sour cream. The chili tastes even better the next day, as the flavors have more time to meld together. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
