Simple Turkey Chili in the Crock Pot instructions
- Chop and sauté peppers in a pan in olive oil with the salt to help the peppers start to sweat and soften.
- Add ground turkey and seasoning salt. fry until meat is done.
- While the meat if frying rinse all the beans really good(yes even the chilli beans. The sauce they put in the cans usually is horrible) and toss them in a crock pot with the drained tomatoes and tomato sauce.
- Add in Oregano, garlic, chili powder, and cumin and mix it all up.
- When the meat is browned toss the meat and pepper mix in the pot (if you're using ground beef drain the fat if using turkey dump it all in because the meat is lean and any juice you have in the pan will be from the peppers sweating).
- Cook on high for 4-6 hours or if you make it in the morning and plan on eating for dinner set it on low 6-8 hours and your done.
Now I love me some chili, and I'm super excited for the colder weather to make some of my faves like CrockPot Chicken Taco Chili, Turkey White Bean Pumpkin Chili, and Turkey Chili Taco Soup, but for my little one who doesn't like beans… or spicy food, this recipe is perfect (it's also gluten-free). It's super easy to make, I did it in the crock pot, but. Add the meat to a large pot or dutch oven. As the turkey is cooking, add the chopped onion to cook and soften. Once the meat is cooked and the onion is softened, drain any excess moisture.
