Turkey and White Bean Chili

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 onions - diced
  • 3 cloves garlic - minced
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 3 15.5 oz cans cannellini beans - like Goya cannellini beans
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 or 3 cups turkey - cooked and chopped
  • 1 can diced tomato
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • salt and pepper - to taste

Instructions

  • Using a large dutch oven (or stock pot), heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.  
  • Add the onions and saute for 10 or 15 minutes until they are golden, just turning brown.
  • Add the garlic, chili powder, cumin and oregano and cook for 3 or 4 minutes.
  • Stir in the beans, then add broth and simmer for a half hour.
  • Using an immersion blender, process until about half of the beans are pureed and half are fairly whole, just enough to get a little body to the broth.
  • Add the turkey and tomato and cook until the turkey is heated about 5 or 10 minutes.
  • Add lime juice and salt and pepper to taste.  Stir well and server hot.
