Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Zesty Turkey Four-Bean Chili.
Step 1
Start by gathering all your ingredients and a large soup pot. In that pot, combine the diced tomatoes with green chiles, chili beans in spicy sauce, hot salsa, dark and light red kidney beans, and seasoned black beans. Toss in the chopped onions and crushed garlic for that aromatic base. Sprinkle in the chili powder, red pepper flakes, coarsely ground black pepper, ground cumin, taco seasoning mix, and a dash of hot sauce. Stir everything together until well mixed. Now, bring this vibrant mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Let it simmer gently for about 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the onions to become tender and translucent.
Step 2
While the chili is simmering, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it apart as it cooks. Stir it frequently until it’s browned and crumbly, which should take about 10 minutes. Once cooked, drain any excess grease and then stir the crumbled turkey into your chili pot.
Step 3
Cover the pot again and let the chili simmer for an additional hour. This step is crucial as it allows all those wonderful flavors to blend beautifully, creating a rich and hearty dish that’s sure to warm you up.
