Wash and dry all produce. Halve, peel, and dice onion. Thinly slice half the jalapeño into rounds; mince remaining half. TIP: Remove ribs and seeds for less heat.

Add beef, Mexican Spice, Southwest Spice, salt, and pepper to same pot. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 5-7 minutes.

Stir tomato paste into pot. Cook, stirring, until dark red and combined, 1-2 minutes. Add diced tomatoes, beans and their liquid, stock concentrate, ¼ cup water, salt, and pepper; stir to combine. Bring to a simmer and cook, uncovered, until thickened, 8-10 minutes. Turn off heat. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
