For a richer flavor, consider browning the cubed chicken in the pot before adding the other ingredients. Feel free to adjust the amount of chili powder to your preference. For a spicier chili, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a dash of your favorite hot sauce. This chili is even better the next day! Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
