Instructions

  1. Heat 1 Tablespoon olive oil over medium heat in a dutch oven or stockpot. Add the ground turkey and cook, crumbling into small pieces, until cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  2. Add 2 tablespoons of oil to the pot. Once hot, add onion, celery, poblano, carrot, and garlic. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until sautéed.
  3. Meanwhile, in a small bowl mix the masa harina, cumin, garlic powder, salt, chili powders, paprika, cinnamon and coriander.

Notes

  • Turkey: To use leftover cooked turkey, chop the meat into pieces and stir in to soup at the end of cooking.
  • Poblano Pepper: They're mild in heat and add great flavor. You could substitute a bell pepper.
  • Make Ahead Instructions: Tastes even better the next day. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for a few days. Rewarm on the stove or slow cooker.
  • Freezing Instructions: Store in a freezer safe bag or container for up to 2 months. Thaw completely in the fridge, then rewarm on the stove or slow cooker.
  • Slow Cooker Turkey Chili: Brown the turkey and sauté the veggies. Add everything to slow cooker and cook on low for 6 hours or high for 3 hours.
