This is a slow cooker recipe. This is a lower-fat chili because it is made with ground turkey breast. Make sure that you are buying ground turkey BREAST and not ground turkey, which includes both light and dark meat and will be higher in fat. If you use ground beef instead of the turkey, you won't need the oil to cook it in.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3/4 lb ground turkey breast
1 large onion, chopped (1 cup)
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans diced tomatoes, undrained
1 (15 ounce) can chili beans, in sauce undrained
1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies, drained
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups cooked brown rice
Directions:
1. Heat oil in 12 inch skillet over medium heat. Cook turkey and onion in oil, stirring frequently, until turkey is no longer pink; drain.
2. Mix turkey & onion with remaining ingredients except rice in a 3 1/2 to 6-quart slow cooker.
3. Cover and cook on low heat setting 8-10 hours (or high heat setting 4-5 hours).
4. Stir in rice.
5. Cover and cook on high heat setting about 15 minutes or until rice is hot.
