Spice Level: Habaneros are potent! Start with half and taste before adding more. For a milder chili, remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapeños and habanero. Thickening: If you prefer a thicker chili, mix 1 tablespoon of masa harina with 2 tablespoons of cold water to form a slurry. Stir this into the chili during the last 15 minutes of simmering. Serving Suggestions: Serve hot, garnished with shredded cheese, sour cream, chopped green onions, or a dollop of Greek yogurt. Cornbread or tortilla chips make excellent accompaniments. Make-Ahead: This chili is even better the next day! Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. It also freezes well for up to 2 months.

Jan 15, 2025I was a little scared of the habanero, but it gave the chili such a great depth of flavor. I'll definitely make this again!
