Delicious Turkey And Black Bean Chili Recipe

Ingredients

Servings:
5
  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 can diced tomatoes (with juices)
  • 1 cup bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup corn (optional) (fresh or frozen)

Instructions

6 steps

  1. Sauté Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and bell pepper, and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.

    Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
  2. Cook Turkey

    Add ground turkey to the pot. Cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon, about 7-10 minutes.

    Ensure turkey is cooked through.
  3. Add Garlic and Spices

    Stir in minced garlic, chili powder, cumin, and oregano. Cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

    This enhances the flavors.
  4. Incorporate Tomatoes and Beans

    Add diced tomatoes (with juices) and black beans. Stir to combine.

    Use low-sodium tomatoes for a healthier option.
  5. Simmer

    Pour in chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes.

    Stir occasionally to avoid sticking.
  6. Final Adjustments

    Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Add corn if using, and cook for another 5 minutes.

    Serve hot with toppings of your choice.
