Description

Ingredients

• 2 T. olive oil
• 1 small, sweet onion, coarsely chopped
• 1 lb. ground turkey, (I used 93/7)
• 4 c. sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into ½-inch cubes
• 2 T. chili powder
• 2 t. cumin
• 1 t. paprika (can use smoked paprika if you prefer)
• 2 t. salt
• ¾ t. pepper
• 1/8 t. cinnamon
• 28-oz. can crushed tomatoes
• 1 c. chicken broth or water
• 1-15 oz. can sweet whole kernel corn, drained
• 1-15 oz. can black beans, drained
• Corn chips (optional)
• Cilantro (optional)
• Sour cream (optional)
• Cooked rice (optional)

Directions

• In a large saucepan, or large shallow pot, drizzle olive oil. Add onions and saute over medium heat for 2-3 minutes.
• Push onions to the side and add ground turkey. Continue cooking over medium heat for 6-8 minutes, or until turkey is almost cooked through.
• Add sweet potatoes and saute for another 2 minutes.
• In a small bowl combine chili powder, cumin, paprika, cinnamon, salt and pepper. Mix to combine.
• Pour crushed tomatoes, chicken broth and pre-mixed seasoning ingredients into the chili mixture. Mix chili thoroughly and reduce heat to a simmer.
• Cover pot and simmer for 20-25 minutes.
• Add drained corn and black beans. Cover and simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes.
• Check to see if sweet potatoes are fork-tender before serving. If you would like a slightly thicker chili, mash some of the sweet potatoes to help thicken it.
• Serve chili over rice with corn chips, cilantro and sour cream and enjoy!
