Method

  1. Heat the 1 tablespoon Olive Oil in a large fry pan over a medium high setting.
    1 Tbsp Olive Oil
  2. Add the 1 Red Onion and the minced 3 cloves Garlic to the pan. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent and starting to caramelize. We are looking for golden brown not burnt;
    1 red onion finely diced, 3 cloves garlic minced
  3. Add the 4 oz Tomato Puree and sauté with the onion and garlic for 2 or 3 minutes. It will become glossy and a deeper color.
    4 oz Tomato Puree
  4. Add the 1.5lb turkey, 2 Tbsp Chili Powder and 3 tsp ground cumin to the onion, garlic and tomato. Fry until the Turkey has browned. We are aiming for it to be just cooked through and no longer pink. The turkey will separate and has an appearance of large bread crumbs. Don't overcook.

  5. Add the turkey mixture, 0.5 lb sweet potatoes, ¼ cup Quinoa uncooked, canned 2 cans Tomatoes, 1 can black beans, ½ cup Vegetable Stock, ¼ teaspoon Salt and ¼ teaspoon Black Pepper to the slow cooker. Set your cooker to high and leave for 4 hours, or low setting for 6 to 8 hours.

Notes

You can, of course, use a normal heavy bottomed saucepan if you don’t have a slow cooker. Simmer with a lid on, at the lowest heat point that keeps the Chili simmering. Don’t leave unattended as it may catch on the bottom. Stir every 10 – 15 minutes. Simmer for 35 to 40 minutes, turn off the heat and allow to sit for another 30 minutes. Reheat before serving.
