Instructions

  • Heat the avocado oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the chopped red onion, red bell pepper, and zucchini, and sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables have softened.
  • Add the ground turkey and cook for another 5-7 minutes, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks, until it's fully browned.
  • Stir in all of the seasonings, followed by the chicken stock, beans, crushed tomatoes, and tomato paste. Mix well until everything is fully combined.
  • Bring the chili to a gentle simmer, cover, and cook for 30-35 minutes, stirring occasionally. The longer it simmers, the more the flavors will develop.
  • Taste and adjust with additional salt and pepper if needed.
  • Serve topped with shredded cheese, avocado, sour cream, or your favorite chili toppings.
