Here’s one;
Chicken Chili

1 onion (chopped)
3 gloves garlic (minced)
1 can kidney beans
1 can pinto beans
1 can chili beans
1 can roasted diced tomatoes
1 can rotelo (chopped tomato and pepper)
1 beer (minus 1/3 to drink for yourself as you cook ;)
1 bell pepper (chopped)
1 rotesserie chicken or 4 cooked breasts (chopped or shredded)
1 packet taco seasoning
1 packet ranch dressing
1 teaspoon chili powder

Sauté onions and garlic in a bit of olive oil until onion is clear. Dump in all the above ingredients without draining the cans prior. That's it. Heat and I serve with avocado, green onions, cheese, sour cream and over tortilla chips. It's better on day 2.
I doubled the recipe (minus the chicken) for groups.

Here is my wife's (raised in Texas) recipe for chili with no beans.

Lean ground beef 1-1/2 or 2 pounds
Medium onion(chopped)
Rotel tomatoes 1 can
Black pepper 1 tsp
Chili power small handfull
Ground orenago 1/4 cup
Ground cumin 1/3 cup
Cayenne pepper 1 pinch (or more if you like it hotter)
Masa 1/3 cup
Water 1 cup

Cook meat and onion together over medium heat until meat is browned.
Add tomato and spices.
Add masa and stir until well mixed.
Add Water and stir.
Reduce heat to low and simmer for 1/2 hour.
Serve with cheddar cheese sprinkled on top and crackers.
