Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cups chopped yellow onions
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 2 pounds ground turkey
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 cup tomato paste
  • 28 ounces crushed tomatoes
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • 30 ounces canned kidney beans
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil

Instructions
 

Sauté the Vegetables

  • First, heat the olive oil in your large pot. Add the chopped onions and cook until they are soft.

Brown the Meat

  • Add the ground turkey to the pot. Use your spoon to break the meat into small pieces.

Add the Spices

  • Stir in the garlic, chili powder, cumin, and pepper flakes. Let the spices toast for a minute for better flavor.

Pour in Liquids

  • Add the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, and chicken stock. Stir everything until the sauce looks very smooth.

Simmer the Chili

  • Turn the heat down to low. Let the chili cook for about 45 minutes to get thick.

Mix in Beans

  • Add the rinsed kidney beans and fresh basil. Cook for another 10 minutes until the beans are hot.

Notes

➤ Use high quality chili powder for the best flavor.
➤ Do not overcook the turkey or it gets dry.
➤ Sauté the onions until they are very translucent.
➤ Add a splash of water if it gets too thick.
➤ Let the chili sit for ten minutes before serving.
➤ Top with sour cream for a creamy taste.
➤ Use fresh garlic instead of the jarred kind.
➤ Taste the sauce before adding any extra salt.
➤ Chop the peppers into very small, even pieces.
➤ Always rinse your canned beans before adding them.
