Spicy Steak Chili

Submitted by taylorkerns

"My own recipe. At the name implies, it's pretty spicy; if you want it milder, add one less jalapeño, switch the habanero out for a cayenne, or both. Steak is optional; it also works with ground beef, ground pork, or pretty much any other meat you can think of. To make it vegetarian-friendly, skip the meat and add extra corn and/or some black beans."
