If you’re looking for a healthy chilli con carne recipe then this turkey chilli con carne is it! Prepared with lean ground turkey, it’s the perfect recipe when you’re after a lighter meal but also in need of all the comfort and flavour that a chilli con carne brings.
Our Turkey Chilli is great for cooking up a big batch and freezing any leftovers. It can be used to make other meals like a nice leftover turkey chilli burrito for a quick lunch, or as a filling for a warm and toasty turkey quesadilla. All you have to do is to make sure your turkey chilli is completely thawed before using it. We recommend doing this overnight in the fridge and then simply reheating it in a saucepan, covered with a lid, over medium heat until piping hot.
You can cook this turkey chilli recipe in the slow cooker as well, just add all the ingredients in the morning and cook slowly for 6 hours. By dinner time it will be ready to serve with a side of steamed white rice. The Gran Luchito Chipotle Paste is the special ingredient in this turkey chilli con carne. Not only does it add a deliciously spicy kick, but it also adds depth of flavour to your meals, which is great when it’s cooked slowly into any sauce.
Don’t forget to try this turkey chilli with our recipe for Cornbread or Lime and Coriander Rice, and to serve it with a few Gran Luchito Fire Roasted Serranos.
