Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and fully cooked, about 5 minutes. Drain any excess grease if necessary.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the cooked ground beef. Stir and cook for 2 minutes until the onion softens slightly.
Stir in the canned diced tomatoes (with their juices), drained kidney beans, chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and bring the mixture to a simmer.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the mixture in the skillet. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions. Serve immediately with hamburger buns or crusty bread, if desired.
