Step-by-Step Instructions for Best Healthy Turkey Chili

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add 1 chopped yellow onion, 3 minced garlic cloves, and 1 chopped red bell pepper. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened and fragrant.
Add 1 pound of extra lean ground turkey, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring frequently, until no longer pink.
Sprinkle in 2-4 tablespoons of chili powder, 1 tablespoon of ground cumin, 1 tablespoon of dried oregano, and a pinch of cayenne pepper, along with salt to taste. Stir and cook for an additional 20 seconds.
Pour in 28 ounces of diced or crushed tomatoes and 1.25 cups of chicken broth. Add 2 cans of dark red kidney beans and 1 can of sweet corn. Stir everything together.
Bring the chili to a gentle boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce to low and let simmer uncovered for 30-45 minutes. Stir occasionally.
Taste your chili and adjust seasoning if necessary before serving.
