Totally Awesome Turkey Chili
Ingredients:
5 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 white onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, chopped
2 turkey breasts, cubed
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp ground cumin
2 Tbsp chipotle powder
2 Tbsp paprika
1 ¾ cups crushed tomatoes
½ lb sun-dried tomatoes rehydrated and sliced
4 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
2 cups rinsed, uncooked brown rice
4 cups chicken stock
2lb pumpkin peeled, seeded and cubed
Salt and pepper to taste
1 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup chopped cilantro
Directions:
Coat the bottom of a large stockpot with 3 Tbsp oil and heat it on medium-high. Add the onion and garlic and cook until translucent. Add the turkey, oregano, cumin, chipotle powder, and paprika. Cook until the turkey browns. Add the tomatoes, sun-dried tomatoes, balsamic vinegar, rice and chicken stock. Bring to a boil. Then simmer for 40 minutes.
In a separate bowl, toss the pumpkin cubes with 2 Tbsp olive oil, salt and pepper, cocoa powder, and half of the chopped cilantro. Spread the cubes on a baking pan and bake them at 350 degrees F for about 20 minutes.
Add the cooked pumpkin mixture to the chili pot with some salt and pepper and the remaining cilantro.
Super easy. Super tasty. Super healthy. And just in time to cook up a big pot for the weekend :)

Hi, what on earth is chipotle powder (in your turkey recipe) – I never heard of it and is it crucial to the recipe’s success? Jennifer
Like Jennifer, I’ve never heard of chipotle powder.
Chipotle is a jalapeño pepper, ripen and smoke dried. It adds a unique flavor to food. It is actually becoming very popular in the fast-food industry as Taco Bell, Burger King and a few others have introduced it as a condiment for “hot” menu selections. You could substitute with Cayene or Chile powders, but, you would be missing on a distinct smoky flavor to your Turkey Chili.
@ Bob:
Tabasco also has a very good chipotle sauce. Check it out in the ‘ketchup/sauces’ aisle of your grocery store.
If you have a Mexican foods aisle, you can easily find the chipotle peppers in a small can. ENJOY!
This recipe sounds fabulous!! Could you tell me where to buy fresh pumpkin this time of year?
Great recipe Joel. I love chili and, as you’ve shown, it’s so easy to make. It’s also great to keep in fridge for a few meals over the course of the week!
Joel, this is also great with Chicken and whole wheat pasta. Instead of chilli powder use dired chilli’s
Do I have to use pumpkin, or can I substitute something else? I’m not a big fan of pumpkin.
Joel,
This sounds really good; something you could throw into a big crock pot and let it simmer for a few hours.
For an added bite, add some cilantro into your chili; it’ll change the way you eat chili forever!

Vinicio and Steveg, thanks for those explanations, I’ll be looking out for it now. Jennifer

I love chilli and I’m intrigued by the added pumpkin, I’ll need to cook up a batch. I’ve experimented with different chilli recipes and find turkey adds a different twist to the traditional chillis.
I love making a huge pot and freezing portions for the following few days and also prefer to drop the rice an favour of some home made guacamole.
What a news! Greetings from Poland, hope to read more about it
Are you positive about that?

Hey, it’s Joel! So you want to know a little more about me, huh? Well, I’d be happy to oblige :-)
I guess it all started back in 2001 (my freshman year of college) when I was just a “skinny fat” 19-year old kid. At the time, I was spending close to 2 hours a day in the gym (now my workouts last about 30 minutes), and despite my efforts, you’d probably never guess I worked out a day in my life by looking at me...
