The traditional Tex-Mex dish chili con carne (or simply chili) simmers on the stovetop for a long time until the flavor develops. But with this quick recipe, you can make chili in just half an hour, and its flavor will be as deep and rich as if you'd spent hours at the stove. To cut down on prep time, you'll need store-bought rotisserie chicken, canned diced tomatoes, and canned beans in chili sauce. The vegetables cook quickly anyway. Serve the chili with traditional toppings: tortilla chips, green onions, or shredded cheese. You can even add all the toppings at once for an even more delicious meal.
