CROCK POT TURKEY CHILI

Steps:

• Heat 1 tbs. oil in skillet. Saute onions and garlic until soft, and slightly browned. Put into crock pot.
• Heat remaining oil and brown ground turkey (I use ground dark meat, not as dry as breast meat when cooked). Put meat into crock pot.
• Add remaining ingredients to crock pot and stir together.
• Cover and cook on high for 4-6 hours.
• Serve in large bowls, with cornbread on side.
• Optional toppings at table: Diced red or sweet yellow onion. Shredded cheddar or pepper jack cheese. Sour cream.

SLOW COOKER TURKEY CHILI

Steps:

• Mix ground turkey, tomatoes, kidney beans, pinto beans, chicken stock, onion, hot sauce, chili powder, salt, minced garlic, paprika, oregano, cayenne pepper, cumin, and black pepper together in a slow cooker; stir to break the turkey into small chunks.
• Cook on Low 6 to 8 hours (or High for 4 hours).

SLOW COOKER TURKEY CHILI

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tomato paste, chili powder, cumin and cayenne and cook, stirring, until the oil is brick-red and the mixture is dry, about 2 minutes. Add the ground turkey and 1 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring and breaking up into smaller pieces, until the mixture is combined (the turkey doesn't need to be cooked all the way through at this point). Transfer the mixture to the insert of a 6-quart slow cooker.
• Add the tomatoes, chicken broth, cocoa powder, vinegar, oregano and 1 teaspoon salt to the skillet over medium-high heat and bring to a simmer, whisking. Cook for about 2 minutes. Add the tomato mixture, beans, onions, crushed tortilla chips and garlic to the insert and give the mixture a good stir. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.
• Add chicken broth to thin the chili, if necessary. Season with salt. Serve with scallions, Cheddar, sour cream, pickled jalapeno and tortilla chips.

FULL FLAVOR CROCK POT TURKEY CHILI

Steps:

• Mix and soak beans overnight per package directions.
• Process the fresh tomatoes, garlic, cumin, oregano, paprika, chili powder, cayenne pepper and jalapeno (hot) peppers in the food processor; place in the refrigerator overnight.
• Note: The 2 tablespoons each of hot spices makes a very mild chili- while the 4 tablespoons w/added hot peppers turns up the heat-- for those who like it HOT!
• Take out four or five cups of the soaked beans and place in crock pot (cut it to 3 cups if you did the fast soak- they will still expand while cooking).
• Freeze the rest for later use.
• If you are using canned beans you'll lose some of the flavor-- but it's still good.
• Fry the bacon until crispy and place in crock pot.
• Brown the ground turkey in some of the bacon drippings and place in crock pot.
• Add the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, onions, bell peppers, broth, beer and tomato spice puree.
• Stir to mix and let cook for 10-12 hours on low.
• (You can also cook for 5-6 hours on high, but the beans will not soak up as much of the flavor).
• Serve topped w/the shredded cheddar cheese.
• This recipe is for a large crock pot. You can cut down on the ground turkey, beans and bell peppers a little if you have a smaller crock pot.
