White Bean {And Turkey} Chilli

Posted by Unknown on Monday, October 18, 2010

I love good chili, and while I have been a vegetarian for about a year, I still make this for the meat eaters in my life, with a separate batch for myself! Paired with some brown rice, it's a flavorful filling dish perfect for the colder months ahead... and it's healthy!
 
Ingredients
1 spray(s) cooking spray   

1 pound(s) uncooked ground turkey breast   (or chicken)

1 large onion(s), chopped   
3 medium garlic clove(s), chopped   

16 oz fat-free chicken broth   
2 tsp ground cumin   
2 tsp dried oregano   
2 tsp chili powder

15 oz canned white beans, and 8oz canned corn, drained and rinsed   
3 Tbsp fresh lime juice , and zest of 1 lime 
1/4 cup chopped cilantro and 1/4 cup chopped scallions, and a few dollops of sour cream for garnish!   
 
Instructions
  • Coat a large skillet with cooking spray. Mix in half of your spices into the turkey. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add in 1/2 the lime zest. Cook turkey, onion and garlic over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until turkey is browned, about 10 minutes.
  • Add turkey mixture and remaining ingredients to a 3 1/2 quart or larger slow cooker. Cover and cook on low heat setting for at least 4 hours. Add in cilantro and scallions before serving. You can even top with a sprinkle of cheddar to punch it up a bit. I've chosen sour cream to add some tang!
HAPPY TUESDAY!
