Step 1
Heat a heavy pot over medium heat. Toss in the onions and ground beef, cooking and stirring until the beef is nicely browned and broken up, and the onions start to soften—this should take about 5 minutes. Drain off any excess grease from the pot.
Step 2
Pour in the beef broth and add the beans, tomatoes, corn, and the Knorr Fiesta Sides Taco Rice. Stir in the buttery spread, then bring everything to a boil. Once boiling, lower the heat, cover the pot, and let it simmer until the rice is tender, which usually takes around 7 minutes.
Step 3
When it’s done, take the pot off the heat and let it sit, covered, for a couple of minutes. Give everything a good stir, then serve it up with some shredded cheese and a dollop of sour cream on top.
Best Serving Ideas
Serve with warm tortillas, shredded cheese, sour cream, and chopped fresh cilantro. A side of crunchy tortilla chips or a simple green salad pairs well to balance the rich flavors.
Storing This Dish
Let the chili cool completely before storing it in an airtight container. It keeps well in the fridge for up to 4 days and freezes nicely for up to 3 months. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave, adding a splash of water if it becomes too thick.
