Season the ground beef with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Let it sit for 15 minutes.

Add the chopped onions to a large pan or Dutch Oven and sauté in a little oil for about 3-5 minutes until translucent. Remove the onions and set aside.

Add a little more oil if needed to the same pan and brown the beef, breaking up the meat into small pieces as you cook it.

Add the crushed garlic, Ancho chili powder, and cumin. Return the onions to the pan with the meat.

Add the fire roasted tomatoes to the pan and stir well.

Simmer for 30-40 minutes. Taste and add more salt if desired.
