Ground Turkey:
We tend to use 93% lean ground turkey, but you could use anything from 85-99% lean.
Spice Level of Hearty and Healthy Turkey Chili:
If you are sensitive to spice, you can go ahead and reduce the chili powder. We also recommend looking for cans of mild green chilis.
Bean Options:
We love the combination of cannellini and kidney beans, but you really can’t go wrong with beans in this recipe. Feel free to use your favorite style of beans.
Cooking Time:
We know how tempting it is to shortcut the simmer time, especially on a busy weeknight! But you really want to allow for the full time to ensure the best flavor.
Slow Cooker Instructions:
We love the ability to prep dinner in the morning, making the slow cooker our best friend. To make this in the slow cooker, you will still need to brown the turkey and sauté the onions and garlic on the stovetop. Once that is ready, go ahead and add it into your slow cooker along with the rest of the ingredients. Cook on low for 4-6 hours, or on high for 3 hours.
Instant Pot Instructions:
To make this chili in the instant pot, first brown your turkey on the sauté setting, and then add in the onions and garlic and sauté until tender. Once the onion is tender, add in the rest of the ingredients. Set the steam release valve to the sealed position and cook on high for 25 minutes. Let it do a natural release of pressure for 10 minutes before carefully turning the valve to venting to release the rest of the pressure.
