How to Make Turkey And Bean Chili
- Heat a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped bacon and cook until crisp and brown, about 6-8 minutes.
- Remove bacon with a slotted spoon, leaving bacon grease in the pot. Increase heat to high.
- Add the ground turkey to the Dutch oven and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until no longer pink, about 8-10 minutes.
- Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and jalapeños. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes, stirring often.
- Stir in the chili powder, cocoa powder, and cumin. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
- Add the crushed tomatoes, tomato puree, molasses, 1 cup of water, and salt. Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to a simmer, partially cover, and cook for 30 minutes.
- Add the rinsed and drained pinto beans (or your chosen beans).
- Continue cooking, uncovered, for another 30 minutes, or until the turkey and beans are very tender and the chili has thickened. Stir occasionally.
- Stir in the cooked bacon. Season with additional salt to taste if needed.
- Serve hot with your favorite chili toppings (sour cream, cheese, onions, etc.)
