Ingredients

  • 1 medium onion chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 pounds extra lean ground turkey
  • 1 (28 fluid ounce) can diced tomatoes with juices
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 (4 fluid ounce) cans diced green chilies
  • 2 (14 fluid ounce) cans white kidney (cannellini) beans drained
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • Optional toppings: shredded cheese, avocado, tortilla strips, cilantro, sour cream, etc.

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Prep your ingredients. Add the oil and the onion to a pot over medium-high heat. Sauté the onion for 5 minutes.
  2. Add the turkey to the pot, and cook it until it turns white (about 5 mins), breaking it up with your spoon/stirring it periodically.
  3. Add the tomatoes and remaining ingredients except the sour cream and salt & pepper.
  4. Once the chili starts to bubble, reduce the heat so it's gently simmering. Let it cook for about 15-20 minutes, stirring it periodically.
  5. Stir in the sour cream and season with salt & pepper. Serve immediately as-is or with suggested toppings.

Notes

  • I used mild green chilis, but feel free to use hot ones instead. You could also add some cayenne pepper if you want to kick up the heat.
  • I found this chili to have plenty of liquid, but if you want a bit more, add in some chicken broth. 
  • Serves 6+ depending on how much you eat.
