Instructions

  • First, get all of your ingredients ready and chop your vegetables. In a large skillet, over medium heat, add the olive oil and cayenne pepper.

  • Towards the end of cooking, taste your chili and add any additional salt or spice to your personal preference if needed. Once the turkey chili is finished, serve and garnish with any toppings that you would like.
