Ingredients

Ingredient Checklist

3 ounces ancho chiles (about 5), rinsed and patted dry

2 cups whole fire-roasted tomatoes (from one 28-ounce can)

1/2 large white onion, cut into 2-inch pieces

3 cloves garlic, smashed

1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1/4 cup safflower oil

Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

2 pounds ground dark turkey meat

3/4 pound cooked smoked turkey necks or wings, skin and bones removed, meat shredded (about 1 1/4 cups)

1 can (15.5 ounces) pink beans, rinsed and drained

      Cook's Notes

This recipe can be made up to three days ahead – in fact, it gets better the longer it sits. Make sure to buy the precooked variety of smoked turkey for this recipe, which requires only brief simmering to heat through.

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 3 ounces ancho chiles (about 5), rinsed and patted dry
  • 2 cups whole fire-roasted tomatoes (from one 28-ounce can)
  • 1/2 large white onion, cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 3 cloves garlic, smashed
  • 1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 cup safflower oil
  • Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 2 pounds ground dark turkey meat
  • 3/4 pound cooked smoked turkey necks or wings, skin and bones removed, meat shredded (about 1 1/4 cups)
  • 1 can (15.5 ounces) pink beans, rinsed and drained
  • Sour cream and cilantro sprigs, for serving

Directions

Assemble ingredients: Ancho chiles (dried poblano peppers) and canned fire-roasted tomatoes add smokiness, while cinnamon, oregano, and cumin bring spice and warmth. Onion, garlic, chicken broth, salt, pepper, and oil also contribute to the flavor base.

Make flavor base: Remove stems and seeds from chiles; tear into large pieces. Transfer to a blender. Blend with tomatoes, onion, garlic, 1/2 cup broth, cinnamon, oregano, cumin, and 2 tablespoons oil. Generously season with salt and pepper. Puree until smooth, about 1 minute. Transfer mixture to a saucepan; simmer over medium, stirring occasionally, until thick and slightly darkened, about 20 minutes.

Cook turkey: Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large pot over medium-high. Add ground turkey; season with salt. Cook through, breaking meat up, about 5 minutes.

Simmer chili: Stir in tomato mixture, smoked turkey, beans, and remaining 1 cup broth. Simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve, topped with sour cream and cilantro.
