Mix chipotle into chili during preparation. Add lime juice to finished chili before serving.
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the beef and cook until browned, about 5 minutes.
Add the onion, garlic, and jalapeño. Cook until the onion is translucent, about 3 minutes.
Stir in the diced tomatoes, black beans, chili powder, cumin, and smoked paprika. Season with salt and pepper.
Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and let cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Serve hot, topped with a soft-boiled egg.
For whole cuts, check a minimum internal temperature of 63°C (145°F), then rest for at least 3 minutes before serving.
