Cheryl's Chipotle Chili (Gluten Free)


Cheryl’s Chipotle Chili
1 ½ - 2 pounds ground turkey
½ small red onion, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 14.5 ounce can tomato sauce or puree
2 14.5 ounce cans diced tomatoes
1 7 ounce can diced green chilis
1 15 ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 15 ounce can great northern beans, rinsed and drained

Seasoning:
1 tablespoon chipotle chili powder
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon black pepper


Brown turkey with onion and garlic. Add canned tomatoes, sauce or puree, green chilis, and beans. Bring to a boil while stirring frequently to prevent burning. Turn temperature to low heat and cover, stirring occasionally while preparing seasoning (about 15 minutes). Mix seasoning together in a small bowl. Spoon one tablespoon of the seasoning mixture into chili, stir in, and cover to continue simmering over low heat for 20 minutes. Spoon in the remaining seasoning and again stir, cover, and continue simmering for at least 20 more minutes. When ready to serve, drizzle garlic infused olive oil and lime juice over chili and stir in to mix. Serve with brown rice or millet.
