Rinse and pat dry the onions and yellow bell pepper.
Place the ground beef in a large sauce pan and brown over medium high heat, stirring occasionally.
While the beef is browning, dice the onion and yellow bell pepper into small (1/4 inch) pieces. You'll use about half of each, save the leftovers as toppers for a green leaf salad!
When the meat is no longer pink, remove it from the pan with a slotted spoon (leaving the grease in the pan) and set aside.
Add about 1/2 cup each of the chopped onion and yellow peppers to the sauce pan and cook until onion is translucent and yellow pepper is soft.
Add all the spices to the pan and stir, let them simmer for a minute.
Add meat back to pan and top with the diced tomatoes and chicken broth. Stir to mix thoroughly.
Let the chili come to a simmer, then reduce heat to very low and cook uncovered for about 1 hour to thicken the sauce.
Remove from heat and cover for 10 minutes. Then serve immediately or let cool and refrigerate for later.
Top with cheddar cheese. You can also add a pinch or two the leftover onions and yellow pepper.
