  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies, undrained
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 2 (15 ounce) cans great northern beans, rinsed and drained
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro (for garnish)
  • 1/4 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add ground turkey and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain any excess fat.
  2. Add chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot. Cook until the onion is softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in the chopped green chilies, cumin, oregano, and cayenne pepper (if using). Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Add the rinsed and drained great northern beans and chicken broth to the pot. Bring to a simmer.
  5. Reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for at least 20 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
  6. Stir in the frozen corn and cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until heated through.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro and a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt, if desired.

Notes

  • For a thicker chili, you can mash some of the beans against the side of the pot.
  • Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your preferred spice level.
  • This chili freezes well for future meals.
