1 tbsp Olive oil
1 pound ground turkey
1 large onion, chopped

2 Bell Peppers, Diced (red and green or yellow)
1 3/4 cups Chicken Broth/stock
1+ cup Hot Salsa (or Medium)
1 can canned black beans, rinsed and drained
1 can Southwest style whole kernel corn, drained
Heat the oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the Carrots, Onion, Garlic, Celery and Peppers and sauté until soft.. Then add turkey, chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt and black pepper. Continue to cook until the turkey is cooked all the way through.

This recipe actually won me an award for the most original chili at a chili cookoff here in town back in February of 2016 🙂 We actually cooked this in dutch ovens over a fire at the ranch, then brought it to the cookoff and re-heated it with the dutch ovens and coals.
