Turkey Chili

On cool, rainy days like this you just need a bowl of soup. In particular, a bowl of chili can warm your entire being up.

1 Tablespoon olive oil
8-12 oz ground turkey thighs
1 medium onion- diced
1 Tablespoon salt
1 cloves garlic- minced
1 (12oz) bottle hard cider
4 teaspoons chili powder
1 (12 oz) can black beans
1 (15 oz) can diced tomatoes
1 (28 oz) can crushed tomatoes
1 1/2 teaspoon black bean paste
2 teaspoon hot sauce
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 Tablespoon pickled or fresh jalapeno
1 Tablespoon vinegar
1 Tablespoon sugar

1. Place the oil into a medium stockpot
2. Cook the turkey over medium heat until browned all the way through, break it up into small bits
3. Add in the onions and salt, cook until translucent
4. Toss in the minced garlic and cook just until you smell it
5. Then add in the cider and chili powder
6. Cook down until the liquid is almost all gone
7. Add in all of the remaining ingredients, stir to combine
8. Simmer together for at least 30 minutes (the longer, the more cohesive the flavor will be)

A slightly spicy bowl of chili that can easily be altered to your desired heat level. The lack of  fatty meat, means you don't have to worry about all that straining nonsense. Allow the soup to sit overnight for maximum flavor.

I like to top mine with loads of cheese, pickled jalapenos and a dollop of sour cream!
