Instructions
Cooking
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef, chopped onion, and minced garlic until no longer pink, about 5–7 minutes.
Stir in canned chili beans, tomato sauce, chili powder, and cumin; bring to a gentle simmer, then cook uncovered for about 10 minutes until thick.
Assembly
Spread half of the Frito corn chips evenly in a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Spoon the hot chili mixture evenly over the chips.
Sprinkle remaining Fritos over the chili, then cover with shredded cheddar.
Place the dish in a preheated 350°F oven for about 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from oven, let cool slightly, then add sour cream, jalapeños, green onions, or cilantro.
