Easy White Bean Turkey Chili Recipe | Perfect Weeknight Meal | Kitchen Basics 101

Start by preparing the spice blend: mix about 4 teaspoons of chili powder, 1.5 teaspoons of smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon of pink Himalayan salt, 1 teaspoon of pepper, and 2 teaspoons of brown sugar in a bowl.

Pulverize half of a large onion using a food processor until it is very fine.

Heat a Dutch oven on medium-high heat and add a squirt of olive oil to the bottom.

Add the pulverized onion to the oil and sauté for about a minute until cooked.

Add the spice blend to the onions and toast for 30 seconds to a minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn them.

Add 2 tablespoons of tomato paste to the pan and cook for another 30 seconds to bloom the flavors.

Add 1 pound of ground turkey to the pan and brown it, mixing it with the onions and spices.

Pour in about 2 cups of chicken bone broth into the pot with the turkey and onions.

Open a can of white northern beans, rinse them in a strainer to remove excess salt water, and add them to the pot.
