- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 lb lean ground turkey
- 1 medium red onion (diced, or yellow onion)
- 2 Tbsp chili powder
- 1 tsp cumin powder
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp fine sea salt (or to taste)
- 1/4 tsp black pepper (or to taste)
- 28 oz canned diced tomatoes (seasoned or plain, with their juice)
- 15 oz tomato sauce
- 15 oz black beans (drained and rinsed)
- 15 oz kidney beans (drained and rinsed)
- 15 oz pinto beans with their juice (or white beans with their juice)
- 2 oz jar of diced jalapeños or mild green chilis (or to taste)
- 15 oz canned corn (drained, or use frozen or fresh corn kernels)
- 1/2 cup chicken stock or water (or as needed, to thin the chili)
Steps
In a 5 Qt pot or Dutch oven over medium/high heat, add 1 Tbsp olive oil and sautee ground turkey until cooked through (5 min).
Add diced onion, chili powder, cumin powder, garlic powder, oregano, salt and pepper. Sautee 5 minutes or until onions are softened.
Add canned diced tomatoes with juice, tomato sauce, beans, diced jalapeños or chilis, and corn.
Stir to combine and bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer partially covered for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add water or chicken stock towards the end if you prefer a thinner chili. Keep in mind it thickens slightly as it cools. Season to taste towards the end of cooking (I like to add an extra 1/2 tsp salt).
