Don’t let the ingredient list scare you. It’s really very simple… Enjoy!
Ingredients
- 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
- 2 pounds Ground Turkey Or Ground Chicken
- 1 whole Medium Onion, Chopped
- 4 stalks Celery, Chopped
- 1 whole Yellow Bell Pepper, Chopped
- 1 whole Jalapeno, Seeded And Chopped
- 4 cloves Garlic, Chopped
- 2 cans (4 Oz. Size) Diced Green Chilies
- 2 teaspoons Ground Cumin
- 1 teaspoon Chili Powder Or Fajita Seasoning
- 1 teaspoon Dried Thyme
- ½ teaspoons Dried Oregano
- ¼ teaspoons Ground Cayenne Pepper
- 2 cans Great Northern White Beans 16 Ounce Cans, Drained, Divided Use
- 4 cups Chicken Or Vegetable Broth
- 1 can (16 Oz. Size) Corn, Drained
- Salt And Pepper, to taste
- ¾ cups Shredded Mozzarella Or White Cheddar Cheese
Preparation
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the turkey and brown it for about 5 minutes. Add onion, celery, yellow pepper, jalapeno, garlic and green chilies. Cook for another 5 minutes or until veggies are tender and meat is cooked through.
Add all of the spices. Stir and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Add the beans (reserving 1/2 of a can to mash later), broth and corn, and bring to a boil. Cover the pot, reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
Use a fork to mash the reserved beans into a paste. Add the bean paste into the chili. Simmer the chili uncovered for another 20 minutes or until chili is thick. Make sure to stir frequently.
Add salt and pepper to taste. Make sure to use lots of fresh ground black pepper!
Stir in the cheese right before serving.
Note: For an even thicker chili, simply mash more of the beans prior to adding them. Get your chili on!
