Turkey Chili Con Carne
Ingredients (serves 4):
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1 red pepper, chopped
1 yellow pepper, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 red onion, finely chopped
500g minced turkey
2 tbsp cumin powder
2 tbsp mild chili powder
2 tbsp thyme
2 tbsp sage
400g can of chopped tomatoes
200g passata sauce
1 tbsp tomato puree
400g can of black beans, drained and rinsed
400g can of red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
450ml chicken or vegetable stock
Salt and pepper, to taste
Dash of maple syrup (optional)
Greek yogurt, to serve
Spring onions, diced for garnish
Instructions:
Heat coconut oil in a large saucepan or stock pot over a medium heat. Add the peppers, garlic, and onion and sauté for 3 to 5 minutes. Add the turkey mince and stir frequently until cooked through (about 7 minutes). Add the herbs and spices, and cook for a couple more minutes.
Next add the chopped tomatoes, passata sauce and tomato puree. Turn down the heat to simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the sauce to reduce and deepen in colour. Add the beans and stock then simmer for 30 - 40 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken.
Season with salt and pepper, and if using, add the maple syrup. Serve on top of brown rice and top with Greek yogurt and spring onions.
