I love the recipe from Eat Yourself Skinny, but I’ve adapted it slightly with my own twist. Enjoy!
Prep time: 10 min. | Cook time: 1 hour 10 min. | Total: 1 hour 20 min.
Ingredients:
- 1 lb turkey, 99% lean
- 1 TBSP cooking oil (lately I use coconut, but EVOO or another type is fine)
- 1 red onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 green bell pepper, chopped
- 3 Tbsp chili powder
- 1 Tbsp cayenne pepper
- 1 Tbsp oregano
- salt, to taste
- black pepper, to taste
- 2 Tbsp liquid smoke
- 1 Tbsp hot pepper sauce (e.g. Tabasco)
- 1 can diced tomatoes
- 1 can tomato paste
- 1 cup red kidney beans (optional)
- sour cream and/or shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
Directions:
- Heat oil over medium heat in large sauce pan
- Cook onion and green pepper, about 3 minutes
- Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 3 minutes
- Add turkey meat, breaking into small chunks; cook until browned
- Transfer turkey and onion mixture to slow cooker and add all final ingredients (except sour cream or cheese); cook on low for approximately 3 hours
- Top with sour cream or cheese to serve
*Or, you can cook everything in a Dutch oven and make it a one-pot meal!
