2. Cooking Directions
- Heat a Dutch oven (or other heavy 5-quart pot) over medium heat. Add bacon; cook until crisp and brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Raise heat to high; add turkey. Cook, stirring and breaking up meat with a spoon, until no longer pink, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Add onion, garlic, and jalapenos; cook until soft, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Stir in chili powder, cocoa powder, and cumin; cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute.
- Break up tomatoes with a spoon or your hands, and stir them in along with the puree. Add molasses, 1 cup water, and 4 teaspoons salt; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer; cook, partially covered, 30 minutes.
- Add beans; continue cooking, uncovered, until meat and beans are very tender, and chili is thick, about 30 minutes more. Serve with desired toppings.
Yield: 8 servings
3. Still Hungry?
You can substitute an equal amount of lean ground beef for the turkey. Other types of beans, such as black or kidney beans, can be used instead of pinto beans.
Notes:
Suggested Chili Toppings
Fresh cilantro leaves, sliced pickled jalapeno chiles, reduced-fat sour cream, crumbled cornbread, grated cheddar cheese

Good Turkey Chili
Kai - September 23, 2007 09:02:19 AM PSTThis is a great turkey chili recipe, I will definitely make it again. The bacon adds some "smokiness" and the cocoa gives it a nice richness. Next time I cook up a batch I am going to add an extra jalapeno to give it more of a kick. Fancy it up at serving time with some diced onions, jalapenos, and bit of cilantro and shredded cheese on top.

Not bad, But.....
writer - November 9, 2007 06:54:48 PM PSTI use ground white meat turkey to cut back a little fat. Also, not every one is garlic happy, so I omit those and I like to taste my chili so I add only very little jalapenos. Want to give your chili a really good tasting kick, add A-1 steaksauce! My basic chili recipe consists of ground turkey, mild kidney beans, onions, chili powder, V-8, and A-1. I make it thick, but not so much that the people that like crackers crushed into their chili can\'t enjoy it also. The best thing about my chili is the taste. It\'s not so hot that they can\'t enjoy the taste, which is in my opinion, the best thing about any food. Being able to taste it.

Love it!
Mike - November 1, 2008 04:50:22 PM PSTPersonally, I love this recipe! I like to cook w/ ground turkey a lot, and this is a great, hearty chili that\'s awesome on a cold day. the bacon adds a great smoky flavor and the chocolate and molasses make it really rich. Served w/ some sour cream and shredded cheddar on top, it makes a delicious meal and is also awesome as a leftover.

krissy - November 2, 2009 05:36:11 PM PSTthis is a huge waste of time, if you add browned ground beef or turkey, a lawry\\'s chili seasoning packet, a can of black beans
