Ingredients
  

1 lb ground turkey breast

1 medium onion, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 bell pepper (any color), diced

1 can (15 oz) white beans (cannellini or navy), drained and rinsed

1 can (4 oz) diced green chilies

1 cup low-sodium chicken broth

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon chili powder

½ teaspoon smoked paprika

1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)

Salt and pepper to taste

1 tablespoon olive oil

Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Lime wedges (for serving)

Instructions
 

Sauté the Aromatics: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper. Sauté until they are softened, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

    Cook the Turkey: Push the vegetables to the sides of the pot, add the ground turkey to the center. Cook until the turkey is browned and cooked through, breaking it apart with a spoon, about 8-10 minutes.

      Add Ingredients: To the pot, add the rinsed white beans, diced green chilies, chicken broth, corn, cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine all ingredients and bring the mixture to a simmer.

        Simmer: Reduce the heat to low and allow the chili to simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally. This allows the flavors to meld together.

          Adjust Seasoning: Taste the chili and adjust the seasoning with more salt, pepper, or spices as needed.

            Serve: Ladle the chili into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the chili.
