Begin by preheating a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion to the skillet and sauté until translucent and slightly browned.
Stir in the uncooked rice and toast it lightly with the onions for about 2 minutes.
Pour in the water and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let the rice simmer for 18 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed.
Open the can of chili and spread it evenly over the cooked rice. Do not stir.
Sprinkle the shredded cheese on top of the chili layer.
Cover the skillet with a lid and let it sit on low heat for about 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the chili is heated through.
Remove the skillet from the heat, let it sit for a couple of minutes for the flavors to meld.
Serve the Cheesy Chili Rice Skillet hot, optionally garnished with fresh herbs or chopped green onions.
