Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 2 cans (15 oz each) white beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup salsa verde

- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder

Instructions
- Cook the ground turkey: In a large pot, heat over medium heat until browned, stirring occasionally to break it apart.
- Add onion and garlic: Incorporate the chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until the onion becomes translucent, about 3-5 minutes.
- Stir in the beans: Add the drained and rinsed white beans into the pot, mixing well with the turkey and onions.
- Add salsa verde and spices: Pour in the salsa verde, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until all ingredients blend together seamlessly.
- Bring to a simmer: Increase heat slightly and bring the mixture to a low simmer.
- Cook for flavor melding: Allow the chili to simmer for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, which lets the flavors develop beautifully.
- Serve hot: Ladle the chili into bowls and garnish with fresh avocado, shredded cheese, sour cream, and cilantro for added taste and texture.
Notes
Use a heavy-bottomed pot to prevent sticking, and adjust spices to your taste. Serve with warm tortillas or cornbread.
