Equipment

  • 1 medium or large pot

Ingredients

  • 1 white onion
  • 1 can Rotel (diced tomatoes with green chilis)
  • 1 can chicken broth
  • 1 can chickpeas
  • 1 can black beans
  • 1 can red kidney beans
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • pinch salt
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • teaspoon cayenne pepper

Instructions

  • Dice onion. Add a drizzle of oil to a medium to large pot. Sauté the onion over medium heat until the onion is translucent and slightly brown, about 4 minutes.
  • Add the ground turkey to the pan. Brown the turkey until it is cooked through.
  • Drain the liquid from the Rotel (diced tomatoes with green chilis) and the black beans, chickpeas (garbanzo beans), and red kidney beans. You do not need to rinse the beans though. Dump all of the cans into the pot. Add the pinch of salt, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper. Bring the one pot turkey chili to a boil.
  • Turn the heat to low and simmer for approximately 15 minutes. If desired, serve with crackers, cheese, and sour cream.
