Print Recipe

A warm and comforting dish made with lean ground turkey, beans, and vegetables, packed with protein and flavor, perfect for weeknight meals.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb lean ground turkey
  • 1 can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup corn, frozen or fresh
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 can diced tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups chicken broth

Instructions

  1. Sauté the aromatics: In a large pot, heat a splash of oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, cooking until softened and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Brown the turkey: Add the ground turkey to the pot, breaking it up with a spoon. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Season the meat: Stir in the chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to toast the spices.
  4. Add vegetables and liquid: Pour in the diced tomatoes, kidney beans, corn, and chicken broth. Stir everything until well combined.
  5. Simmer the chili: Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally until thickened and flavors meld.
  6. Taste test: Before serving, taste your chili and adjust the seasoning as necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or spices if desired.
  7. Serve hot: Ladle the chili into bowls and serve hot, perhaps with your favorite toppings.

Notes

Avoid overcooking ground turkey. Adjust the consistency with more broth if needed. Store leftovers properly for best flavor.
