Instructions

  1. Heat the avocado oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onions and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they become tender. Add garlic and continue cooking for 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
  2. Push onions and garlic to the side and add the ground turkey. Cook, breaking apart, for 7-8 minutes, or until no longer pink. Add sweet potatoes, stir, and cook for another 2 minutes.
  3. Add crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, chili powder, cumin, paprika, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, if using, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine and increase the heat to high. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes
  4. Stir in the corn and black beans. Cover and simmer for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until sweet potatoes are fork-tender. For a slightly thicker chili, mash some of the sweet potatoes using a potato masher.
  5. Serve with sour cream and chopped cilantro, if desired.

Notes

  • Storage: Keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
  • Freezing: Place in a freezer-safe airtight container and freeze for up to 5-6 months.
  • Potatoes: You can leave the skin on the potatoes if you like, but they might separate.
  • Seasoning: Make your own chili seasoning.
