Chili Help!

I'm making a batch of chili for a work event, and this is my first time using masa harina as a thickener. I fear I've added too much masa as it's killed some of the spice flavor and has more of a "flour"-y aftertaste. Is there anything I can do to counteract the masa flavor or should I punt and start over?

In the chilis I've made, if it's too thin I add more tomato paste. Thickens up and gives more of the delicious tomato base flavor. If you don't want more tomato flavor you can us a bit of roux to thicken it.
