Ingredients

1/4 lb ground top sirloin or extra lean ground beef
1 1/2 cups tomatoes, chopped
1/2 cup water
1 tbsp onion, minced
Pinch of garlic powder
Pinch of onion powder
1/4 tsp chili powder
Pinch of oregano
Cayenne pepper to taste
Sea salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Heat a small pot or saucepan over medium heat. Add the ground top sirloin or ground beef to the pot and cook until browned, breaking it up into smaller pieces with a spatula as it cooks.
Once the meat is cooked, add the minced onion to the pot and sauté for a few minutes until the onion becomes translucent.
Add the chopped tomatoes to the pot and stir well.
Pour in the water, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, oregano, cayenne pepper, sea salt, and pepper. Stir everything together to combine.
Bring the chili to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it cook for about 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Taste the chili and adjust the seasonings according to your preference. If you want it spicier, add more cayenne pepper. If it needs more flavor, you can add additional chili powder, garlic powder, or salt.
Once the chili has thickened to your desired consistency, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly before serving.
Serve the chili hot in a bowl. You can garnish it with your favorite toppings such as shredded cheese, chopped onions, sour cream, or cilantro, if desired.
