Step 1

Heat a heavy, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and sauté, stirring occasionally, 4-5 minutes, or until meat is no longer pink. Pour contents of the pan into a strainer or colander lined with paper towels. Allow fat to drain out. In a large, heavy saucepan or Dutch oven, heat oil over medium high heat. Add onions and saute 2 to 3 minutes, or until translucent. Add meat, garlic, tomato sauce and 1 and 1/2 cups of water. Simmer for 20 minutes. Stir in chili powder, cayenne pepper, cumin, oregano, pepper, salt and pinto beans. Allow to simmer an additional 30 to 40 minutes. Combine cornstarch and cold water. Stir into the chili I'm serving size of terrains mixture to thicken, and cook an additional 3 to 4 minutes. Serve hot, garnish with corn chips if desired.
