This healthy turkey chili recipe is hearty and delicious with plenty of flavor, plus it is easily made on the stove top or slow cooker. Perfect for a cozy dinner.
In a large pot over medium heat, heat the oil. Stir in the onion, bell pepper, and garlic. Cook 5 minutes, or until the onions become translucent. Add the turkey and cook until lightly browned. Drain, if needed. Stir in chili powder, cumin, salt, and oregano.
Add the broth, tomatoes, beans, and corn, if using. Bring to a boil and reduce the heat to low. Simmer at least 30 minutes, but the longer the better. Adjust seasonings, as needed.
Ladle into bowls and top with your favorite toppings to serve.
