Best White Chili Ever {Turkey x 2 White Chili}

Turkey x 2 White Chili

 

 

Seriously, this White Chili Recipe is to die for, I've made it a few times and it's such a hit that now I make a double recipe and we enjoy for lunches all week.



 

NOTES:  I had happened to have made a huge pot of Navy Beans but you can sub out canned beans {I've done both ways} and it's still fab. 

Another shortcut is using lunch meat as your turkey....  cheaper too!

WHAT YOU NEED: 

       2 cups cooked turkey breast, coarsely chopped
1 pound ground turkey
2 small onions, chopped
1 can chopped green chilies

1 red bell pepper chopped
1/2 bag navy beans, cooked

{OR 2 cans navy beans, drained}
1 (14.5-oz) can reduced-sodium chicken broth
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano leaves

1 cup milk
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

WHAT YOU DO:Use your large stock pot.

Saute peppers and onions in a little olive oil

on medium-high for 2–3 minutes or until tender.
Reduce heat to medium and add ground turkey to pan;

cook 5–6 minutes, stirring to crumble meat,

or until brown and no pink remains.
Stir in green chili, cumin, chili powder, oregano, 

then beans and broth and bring to a boil.

Reduce heat to low; simmer for at least 30 minutes

{but I've let simmer as long as several hours

 adding a little more chicken broth if I thought getting "dry"}.
Ten minutes before serving stir in turkey and milk;

cook 10 more minutes to blend flavors.

Top with cheese as you serve.

 

ENJOY!
