6. *Simmer and serve*: Simmer the chili for an additional 10-15 minutes or until heated through. Serve hot, garnished with chopped cilantro if desired.


*Tips:*

- *Use rotisserie chicken*: If you're short on time, use rotisserie chicken to make the recipe even easier.

- *Adjust the heat*: If you prefer a milder chili, reduce or omit the cayenne pepper.

- *Serve with crusty bread*: Serve the chili with crusty bread or cornbread for a delicious and filling meal.
