Jerk Turkey Chili

Don’t let the long list of ingredients scare you, because this chili is very easy to make. Once you sauté the vegetables, it’s just a matter of dumping in all the spices, then adding the turkey, broth, and beans. The chili needs to cook for about half an hour, then the secret ingredient—chocolate—is added to give the dish a little depth. If you want more spice, add extra jalapeños.

Directions

75 min.
1. Step

Heat the oil in a casserole or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the onion, bell pepper, and garlic, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables have softened, about 5 to 8 minutes.

2. Step

Add the chili powder, thyme, cinnamon, allspice, and nutmeg, stir to combine, and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the turkey or chicken and stir to coat with the spice mixture.

3. Step

Add the stock or broth, tomatoes and their juices, beans and their liquid, and jalapeños. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the flavors have melded, about 0 minutes.

4. Step

Turn off the heat, stir in the cilantro, chocolate, and cornmeal (if using), and let sit for 10 minutes. Stir once more to combine. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
