The Best Healthy Turkey Chili By Ambitious Kitchen - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 teaspoons olive oil
    1 yellow onion, chopped
    3 garlic cloves, minced
    1 medium red bell pepper, chopped
    1 lb extra lean ground turkey
    4 tablespoons mccormick's chili powder (use 2-3 if using other brand)
    2 teaspoons ground cumin
    1 teaspoon dried oregano
    1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
    1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
    1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
    1 1/4 cups chicken broth
    2 (15 ounce) cans dark red kidney beans, rinsed and drained
    1 (15 ounce) can sweet corn, rinsed and drained
Preparation
    Place oil in a large pot and place over medium high heat. Add in onion, garlic and red pepper and saute for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently. Next add in ground turkey and break up the meat; cooking until no longer pink. Next add in chili powder, cumin, oregano, cayenne pepper and salt; stir for about 20 seconds.
    Next add in tomatoes, chicken broth, kidney beans and corn. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 30-45 minutes or until chili thickens and flavors come together. Taste and adjust seasonings and salt as necessary. Garnish with anything you'd like.
    Makes 6 servings, about 1 1/2 cups each.
    Typically, McCormick's Chili Powder is used in this recipe, which is very mild. If you're using something else, I would start with 2-3 tablespoons instead of 4.
    To make this recipe in the slow cooker: Reduce the chicken broth to 1/2 cup and brown the turkey and onions before adding to the slow cooker. This is an awesome tailgating or football party recipe!
