Chili con Awesome

Ingredients

1 lb. or packet of ground turkey

1 tbsp. olive oil

1 or 2 large onion, diced

2 or 3 cloves of garlic, chopped

2 or 3 peppers, diced

1 chili peppers, diced

1 can kidney beans

1 can diced tomatoes

Ingredients for Chili Seasoning

Adjust to taste. Not set in stone. Chili taste is reliant on lots of cumin and lots of chili powder, don't skimp.

Mexican chili powder is overwhelming, so go easy on it.

3 tbsp. cumin

3 tbsp. chili powder

1 tbsp. mexican chili powder

1-2 tbsp. salt

2 tsp. ground black pepper

2 tsp. cinammon

2 tsp. dried mexican oregano

2 tsp. paprika

2 tsp. cayenne pepper

1 tsp. - 2 tsp. of raw sugar

Directions

1. Pour olive oil into pan on medium high heat. Add onions and garlic when a drop of water sizzles and evaporates away in the hot pan.

2. Stir onions and garlic, adding some of the seasoning (~1 tbsp.) when they start to get fragrant.

3. Add peppers (not chili peppers) when the onion starts to get soft. Add some more of the seasoning (~1 tbsp.).

4. Add the ground turkey and break apart with wooden spoon. As it browns and breaks, add some of the seasoning (~2 tbsp. total)

5. When turkey is browned and the peppers start getting soft, add the chili peppers. Cook for about 2 minutes...

6. ...then add 1 can diced tomatoes. You can do 2 cans if you want a more tomato-ey taste. Add rest of seasoning.

7. Stir in diced tomatoes and seasoning, letting everything mix together. Heat to a simmer.

8. Add beans to mix. Pan should be getting full.

9. Spoon in the chili from the pan to the crock pot, mixing everything around as you add it to the pot.

10. Let cook on high until you get the whole mix simmering.

11. Drop to low for a few hours if you're patient, keep on high for 30-45 minutes if you wanna chow down immediately.
