• 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
• 1 medium green bell pepper, diced
• 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 1.5 tablespoons chili powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 0.25 teaspoons ground cayenne pepper (optional)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 15 ounces diced tomatoes (with juices)
• 15 ounces tomato sauce
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 15 ounces kidney beans, drained and rinsed
• 15 ounces black beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 cup frozen corn kernels
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the ground turkey and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in the diced yellow onion, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and minced garlic. Cook for another 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft and fragrant.

Step 4

Add the chili powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper. Stir well to coat the turkey and vegetables with the spices.

Step 5

Pour in the diced tomatoes (with their juices), tomato sauce, and chicken broth. Stir to combine.

Step 6

Add the kidney beans, black beans, and frozen corn. Stir everything together and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the chili simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

Step 8

Stir in the lime juice and taste the chili. Adjust seasonings as needed.

Step 9

Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh cilantro if desired.
