Drunken Turkey Chili

Ingredients:

• two tablespoons virgin olive oil
• 1 white onion, chopped
• one red bell pepper, chopped
• 4-six cloves garlic, minced
• 2 jalapeno peppers, minced
• half tablespoon smoked paprika
• 2-4 teaspoons of chili powder, or more to flavor
• 2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• one/four teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 pound lean ground turkey meat
• 1 14.five ounce can peeled tomatoes
• one 16 ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
• one bottle of beer
• 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
• 1 bunch of fresh new cilantro, minced

Recommendations:

1. Carefully heat the oil in a large pot. Do not let it smoke!
2. Include the onion, bell pepper, garlic, and jalapenos. Saute in excess of medium warmth until soft, about 5 minutes.
3. Incorporate all powdered spices and stir to coat vegetables.
4. Add turkey. Saute for 3 or four minutes, until just cooked through. Use your spoon or spatula to split it up.
5. Drain the juice from the peeled tomatoes into your chili pot. Then finely chop the tomatoes and include them. Stir.
6. Include the black beans, the beer, and the soy sauce. Stir.
7. Include cilantro and stir very well.
8. Simmer on reduced heat for 5 to ten minutes. Then turn off the heat and let it set for about fifteen minutes just before serving.
9. Optional Garnishes: Top with very low-fat sour cream, grated cheese, avocado slices, chopped green onions, or everything else that suits your taste! I enjoy it with tortilla chips.
