Print Recipe

A hearty and comforting turkey chili that offers a leaner alternative to traditional beef chili, packed with protein and customizable to fit everyone’s taste.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cans (15 oz each) beans (such as kidney or black beans), drained and rinsed
  • 1 can (28 oz) diced tomatoes
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional toppings: shredded cheese, sour cream, chopped cilantro

Instructions

  1. Brown the Turkey: Start by heating a large pot over medium heat. Add the ground turkey and cook until it is browned and thoroughly cooked, breaking it into small pieces as it cooks.
  2. Sauté Vegetables: Once the turkey is cooked, add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot. Cook for about 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is soft and translucent.
  3. Add Remaining Ingredients: Stir in the drained and rinsed beans, diced tomatoes (including their juice), and chicken broth. Then add the chili powder, cumin, and season with salt and pepper. Mix everything well.
  4. Simmer: Bring the mixture to a simmer. Lower the heat and let it cook for about 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Serve: Once the chili has simmered, spoon it into bowls and top with your choice of shredded cheese, sour cream, or chopped cilantro.

Notes

You can serve turkey chili with cornbread or crackers, or topped with diced avocado, crumbled tortilla chips, or lime wedges.
