I made turkey chili for the first time today, and it was well liked by boys and girls alike in this house! Wow! I found halal ground turkey at Trader Joe's and figured I'd give it a try. After looking at a couple of recipes online, this is what I ended up putting in the pot:
1lb ground turkey
1/2 white onion
1/2 red onion
4 cloves garlic
2 thin carrots, chopped
1 red pepper, chopped
2 14oz cans diced tomato
1 14oz can red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
2 Tbsp homemade taco seasoning (taken from 100 Days of Real Food)
salt, pepper
Saute the vegetables in a bit of oil for a few minutes, then add the ground turkey. Crumble it up and drain if needed. Add the tomatoes and beans along with two cans full of water and the spices. Let this simmer an hour or two until the liquid reduces to your desired thickness. I would also transfer this to the crock pot once I browned the turkey and add everything else in the crock pot and let that go for a while.
I set out some toppings like shredded cheddar, sour cream, jalapenos, freshly chopped onions, and the leftover crumbs of our gluten free chips. You could make cornbread or eat this over burger buns :D
