1 lb ground turkey thighs
1 lb ground turkey breast
2 cans (14 oz each can) diced tomatoes
1 can (14 oz) kidney beans
1 can (14 oz) white beans
6 oz tomato paste
32 oz chicken broth
1 large onion, minced
1 jalapeno pepper, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
8 garlic cloves, chopped
4 tablespoons chili powder
1½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons cocoa powder
2 teaspoons brown sugar
½ teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons olive oil
Shredded Cheddar, for serving
Sour Cream, for serving
In a large pot heat 2 tablespoon of olive oil. Add onion, garlic and both types of peppers and cook over medium heat for 10 minutes.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a medium sauté pan and add ground turkey. Cook, stirring constantly and breaking up the big chunks with a fork until the liquid evaporates and meat is thoroughly cooked and slightly brown.
Add the ground meat into a pot with an onion and pepper mixture.
Pour in diced tomatoes and beans.
Dilute tomato paste with 1 cup of chicken broth and add to a pot.
Add chili powder, cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, oregano, cumin, brown sugar, cocoa powder, chicken broth and ½ teaspoon of salt.
Stir together well, cover, and then reduce the heat to low. If the soup becomes too thick, add ½ cup of chicken broth.
Simmer for 1 hour.
Serve with cheddar and a dollop of sour cream.
