Turkey Chili


  • Ingredients
  • 3 teaspoons olive oil
  • 2 pounds ground turkey
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 Chopped Bell Pepper- I mixed green, red, and orange
  • 2 Fresh JalapeƱos chopped....Add more if you like it spicy
  • 3 cups water
  • 2 (28 ounce) can canned crushed tomatoes...I used fire roasted from Whole Foods
  • 1 (16 ounce) can canned kidney beans - drained, rinsed, and mashed
  • 1 (16 ounce) can of Black beans
  • 5 Cloves of chopped garlic
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 teaspoons Jess Hall's seasoned pepper
  • 1/4 stick of butter

Directions

  1. Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Place turkey in the pot, and cook until evenly brown. Stir in onions, bell peppers and jalapeƱos and cook until tender. I add the chopped garlic towards the end of this process b/c it usually cooks quicker.
  2. Pour water into the pot. Mix in the rest of the ingredients and Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for a few hours. The longer you cook at a low temp the better it will taste. 
  3. Garnish with onions and Cheese if you desire
