Healthy Turkey Chili
- 2 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 cup Yellow Onion, Diced
- 2 cloves Garlic, Minced
- 1-1/2 pound Ground Turkey Breast
- 1 can (15 Oz. Can) Petite Diced Tomatoes
- 2 cans (15 0z. Can) Tomato Sauce
- 1 can (15 Oz. Can) Black Beans, Rinsed And Drained
- 3 Tablespoons Chili Powder (more To Taste)
- 1 Tablespoon Cumin (more To Taste)
- 2 cups Green Pepper, Diced
- 1 cup Shredded Cheese
- Salt And Pepper
- 1. Warm extra virgin olive oil in a deep stock pot over medium-high heat. Add diced onion and garlic; saute until tender.
- 2. Add ground turkey breast; season with salt and pepper and cook through, about 6 minutes.
- 3. Add petite diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, and black beans.
- 4. Add chili powder and cumin to taste.
- 5. Reduce heat to medium-low; add green pepper.
- 6. Simmer 10-20 minutes, until green pepper is tender.
- 7. Serve with shredded cheese sprinkled on top. A scoop of fresh guacamole is also perfect for this recipe!
- ***Notes: the spices in this recipe are for a relatively mild chili. If you like your chili with a kick, I would definitely recommend adding more spice to your taste! I typically end up adding a bit more chili powder to mine if my husband isn't around (he can't handle heat!).
- Also - if you would like your green peppers to be a bit softer, I'd add them in with the onions at the beginning of the recipe. I like a bit of difference in texture in comparison to the soft tomatoes, beans, and turkey, so adding them towards the end is just a personal preference!
