Who doesn’t love a quick, easy, low-fat, high-protein, nutritious meal on a “chilly” day? Here’s how to make my Spicy Chipotle Turkey Chili!! 🍲
Main Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground turkey
- 1 red pepper, chopped into quarter-inch pieces
- 1 small can of Mexican corn, drained
- 1 can of dark red kidney beans, drained
- 1/3 small can of Chipotle peppers, chopped (or less if you don’t like it too spicy!)
- 2 cloves of garlic, chopped into small pieces
- Your favorite tomato sauce. I tried a spicy honey tomato sauce that worked nicely.
- Chicken broth
Spices
- Pepper
- Cumin
- Turmeric
- Smoked paprika
- Cilantro, if desired. You can add it dried while cooking or put some fresh cilantro on top when the chili is ready.
Toppings
- Shredded cheddar or Mexican cheese blend
- 1 avocado, cut into chunks or slices
- Low-fat sour cream
Instructions
Spray the frying pan with avocado or olive oil to prevent sticking, and cook the turkey meat, breaking it up into small bits with as it cooks. Add some salt and pepper as it nears completion.
Add the red pepper and sauté, followed by the garlic, being carefully not to burn them.
Once the red pepper and garlic are softened, add the chopped chipotle peppers and some of the sauce, and cook another minute or so.
Next, add the corn, beans, about 1/2 cup of tomato sauce and about 1/2 cup of chicken broth. Simmer until the sauce is the consistency you like, and you are ready to eat.
Serve in a bowl topped with shredded cheese, a healthy serving of avocado, and sour cream, and your favorite chips or cornbread. Enjoy!!
