- Add the garlic, cumin, paprika and chilli flakes and cook for a further 2 minutes.
- Add the diced (bell) peppers, tomatoes, beans, cooked turkey, oregano, salt and pepper and give everything a good stir. Bring to the boil, then turn down to a gentle bubble for 15 minutes. Stir occasionally.
- While the chilli is cooking, make the rice according to packet instructions / your own preferences (or heat the tortillas).
- After 15 minutes, add in the sweetcorn and lime juice and cook for 5 more minutes.
- When the chilli is ready, stir in the chopped coriander and serve with rice and/or tortillas, and all your favourite extras.
