Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add turkey and chipotle peppers in adobo, and scramble until lightly browned and turkey is cooked all the way through. Transfer turkey to a plate, and set aside.
  2. Meanwhile, add remaining 1 tablespoon of olive to the pan, and sauté diced onion, garlic, carrots, bell pepper, and sweet potato. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently.
  3. Add in cumin, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper, and stir.
  4. Add diced tomatoes, beans, corn, and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer on low for 30-45 minutes, or until chili is thickened to your likening. Taste, and add additional seasoning as needed.
  5. Serve with any garnishes, and enjoy!
