Healthy turkey chili made with lean ground turkey, kidney beans and corn. This model is surely the BEST! Perfectly spiced and packed with plenty of protein and fiber. Can be made at the stovetop or for your sluggish cooker!

INGREDIENTS:

  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1 yellow onion, chopped
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 pound extra lean ground turkey or chicken (99%)
  • 4 tablespoons chili powder* (I used McCormick chili powder - please read the notes section on this)
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 (28-ounce) can diced tomatoes or crushed tomatoes
  • 1 1/4 cups chicken broth

  • 2 (15 oz) cans dark red kidney beans, rinsed and drained

For topping:

  • Tortilla Chips
  • Cheese
  • Avocado
  • Sour Cream
  • Cilantro

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Place oil in a large pot and place over medium high heat. Add in onion, garlic and red pepper and saute for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently. 
  2. Add in ground turkey and break up the meat; cooking until no longer pink. Next add in chili powder, cumin, oregano, cayenne pepper and salt; stir for about 20 seconds.
  3. Next add in tomatoes, chicken broth, kidney beans and corn. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 30-45 minutes or until chili thickens and flavors come together. Taste and adjust seasonings and salt as necessary. 
  4. Garnish with anything you'd like. Makes 6 servings, about 1 1/2 cups each.
