Turkey Chili Recipe
Report
This easy turkey chili is the best of both worlds: hearty AND healthy! My recipe uses lean ground turkey and wholesome beans, perfectly seasoned for a delicious and easy weeknight meal. I almost always make this chili recipe on my stovetop, but it's super easy to make in your slow cooker, too.

Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat and add the onion. Mince the peppers, celery, and garlic and add them as you finish cutting them. Once the onion starts to brown, about 7-8 minutes, add the turkey and let it cook until it is no longer pink.
- Add the chili powder, cumin, oregano, and (if using) the chili flakes. Stir the spices and break up the turkey meat into small pieces.
- Add the tomatoes to the pot and bring the pot to a boil. Turn the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 20 minutes.
- Stir in the beans and let them warm through. Add the coconut sugar or honey then season to taste with salt and pepper.
Notes
- Tasty toppings: sour cream, grated cheddar cheese, cilantro, green onions, sliced jalapeños, corn chips.
- I love to serve this with my Greek Salad Recipe or, for a special treat, some Cheesy Chili Zucchini Cornbread Muffins.
