Ingredients

  • 1 lb Ground Turkey 97/3
  • 2 250g Bell Peppers, diced*
  • 8 oz can Tomato Sauce
  • 2 Tbsp 30g Balsamic Vinegar
  • 1 C Chicken Broth
  • 3 cans 15 oz each Beans (I used black, pinto, and kidney)

For the Chili Seasoning

  • 2 Tbsp Chili Powder
  • 1/2 Tbsp Smoked Paprika
  • 1/2 Tbsp Dried Oregano
  • 1 tsp Cumin
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp Ground Coriander

Instructions

  • Use the sauté function on your Instant Pot to brown one side of the ground turkey (about 4-6 minutes).
  • Once one side has browned, flip the ground turkey and add the diced peppers. Leave the turkey and peppers alone for an additional 4-5 minutes to brown the other side.
  • Once both sides of the ground turkey have browned, turn off the Instant Pot. Add the tomato sauce and balsamic vinegar, deglazing the pot completely, before adding the chili seasoning blend. Stir until everything is evenly incorporated.
  • Add the beans and broth before sealing the Instant Pot and pressure cooking on high for 15 minutes with quick release (vent immediately after cooking). Give the turkey chili a stir and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve with corn chips or baked tortilla chips, shredded cheese, fat free Greek yogurt or sour cream, and scallions or freshly diced chiles.

Notes

*You can use hotter peppers or a mix of peppers for spicier turkey chili. Check out this Scoville scale guide for choosing peppers.
