Ingredients

• 1 pound lean ground turkey (99% fat-free)
• 1 small onion, diced
• 1 bell pepper, chopped (any color)
• 3 cloves minced garlic
• 15 ounces canned diced tomatoes (no salt added)
• 8 ounces canned tomato sauce (no salt added)
• 15 ounces canned kidney beans, drained and rinsed
• 15 ounces canned black beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons chili powder
• 1 tablespoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0 optional toppings (e.g., scallions, cilantro, non-fat Greek yogurt, or shredded reduced-fat cheese)

Directions

Step 1

Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the lean ground turkey and cook for about 5-7 minutes, breaking it up into crumbles until browned and fully cooked. Drain any excess liquid, then return the turkey to the pot.

Step 3

Add the diced onion, bell pepper, and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are softened and fragrant.

Step 4

Stir in the chili powder, ground cumin, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 1 minute to toast the spices.

Step 5

Pour in the canned diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, kidney beans, black beans, and chicken broth. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.

Step 6

Bring the chili to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

Step 7

Once the chili has thickened to your desired consistency, taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Add more salt or spices as preferred.

Step 8

Serve the chili hot, garnished with your choice of optional toppings, such as scallions, cilantro, a dollop of non-fat Greek yogurt, or a sprinkle of reduced-fat shredded cheese.

Step 9

Enjoy this hearty, flavorful dish that's perfect for any occasion!
