Ingredients
Instructions
Cook the Ground Turkey:
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground turkey and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks. Once cooked, transfer the turkey to a plate and set aside.
Sauté Aromatics:
In the same pot, add the chopped onion, garlic, bell pepper, and jalapeño pepper. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables begin to soften.
Add Beans and Tomatoes:
Return the cooked turkey to the pot. Add the drained kidney beans, diced tomatoes, and tomato paste. Stir to combine.
Add Spices:
Sprinkle in chili powder, ground cumin, paprika, dried oregano, ground coriander, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to distribute the spices evenly.
Pour in Chicken Broth:
Add the chicken broth to the pot and stir. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
Simmer:
Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let the chili simmer for about 30-40 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld and the chili to thicken.
Adjust Seasoning:
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. If you want more heat, you can add extra chili powder or a pinch of cayenne pepper.
Serve:
Add Bubs. Eat soup.
