Chili con carne[a] (Spanish: [ˈtʃili koŋ ˈkaɾne] lit. 'chili with meat'),[1] often shortened to chili, is a spicy stew of Mexican origin containing chili peppers (sometimes in the form of chili powder), meat (usually beef), tomatoes, and often pinto beans or kidney beans.[2] Other seasonings may include garlic, onions, and cumin. In Spanish the dish is often termed "carne con chile"; in Mexico "chili con carne" is used for the US version, and "carne con chile" for the Mexican version. The spelling "chilli" is also used in English.[3] The dish is made in other countries but, unlike in the US, is not referred to as simply "chili"—the single word refers to the ingredient, chili pepper, the dish is always "chil[l]i con carne".[4]
The types of meat and other ingredients used vary based on geographic and personal tastes. Recipes provoke disputes among aficionados, some of whom insist that the word chili applies only to the basic dish, without beans and tomatoes. Chili con carne is a common dish for cook-offs, and may be used as a side, garnish, or ingredient in other dishes, such as soups or salsas.[5]
