This is the perfect go-to recipe if you're looking for something healthy, qulick and filling. The turkey is a learner substitution for ground beef and the fact that there is very little added salt makes it a hearth healthier option. I usually serve this with shredded cheese, sour cream and cornbread on the side! Ingredients:
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil |
3 garlic cloves, chopped |
1/2 small onion, chopped |
1 lb ground turkey |
1 small red bell pepper, chopped |
1 small green bell pepper, chopped |
1 (15 ounce) can dark red kidney beans, drained and rinsed |
2 (28 ounce) cans crushed tomatoes |
2 tablespoons chili powder |
1 teaspoon ground pepper |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon cumin |
1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper |
1 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar |
Directions:
1. Add olive oil to bottom of a large cooking pot and turn heat on medium-low.
2. Add garlic to pot and cook until it starts to brown, stirring frequently (about 2 minutes).
3. Add onions and cook on medium-low until golden and translucent (about 5 minutes).
4. Add ground turkey and cook, stirring frequently, until cooked through.
5. Combine seasonings in a small bowl, then pour over cooked turkey meat in pot, and stir.
6. Pour in 2 cans of crushed tomatoes (be careful, it will splash slightly).
7. Stir in light brown sugar, kidney beans, and chopped peppers.
8. Simmer on medium-low heat for 30 minutes with cover on, slightly vented to allow steam to escape.
9. Serve with your choice of sides!
