Delicious Chili with Perfect Spice Level, Member MisterBungle

This chili was fantastic and quite easy to make. To cut the cost down a bit, I used two cans of chili beans and only two large chicken breasts (approx. 1.5 lbs). This still gave a great ratio of chicken-to-beans, and the total cost of the meal was about $8. It yielded 4 large servings, so we ended up with a delicious $2 per meal dish. I also added about half a cup of red wine and a teaspoon or so of chicken seasoning. Note: If you don't like things very salty, you may want to hold back on the salt and any chicken seasoning until you get to have a taste.
