Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons of fragrant olive oil
  • A generous pound of wholesome lean ground turkey
  • Chopped vibrant red bell pepper, about a cup's worth
  • Minced garlic, three cloves for a hint of pungency
  • Kidney beans, plump and inviting, from a 16-ounce can, rinsed and drained
  • Black beans, rich and hearty, from a 16-ounce can, rinsed and drained
  • Black-eyed peas, tender and delightful, a cup of them, canned, rinsed and drained
  • Low-sodium tomato sauce, a comforting 15-ounce can
  • A touch of heat with a chopped dried habanero pepper
  • Sweet and juicy frozen corn kernels, about a cup's worth
  • Packed brown sugar, a tablespoon for a hint of sweetness
  • Worcestershire sauce, a teaspoon to add depth of flavor
  • Fragrant dried basil, a tablespoon for an herby touch
  • Earthy dried sage, a teaspoon for a warm note
  • Salt, to accentuate and balance the flavors

Step 1

Begin by heating a tablespoon of olive oil in a spacious skillet over medium-high heat. Saute the ground turkey until it transforms into a lovely shade of brown, typically for about 10 minutes. Once done, delicately transfer the cooked meat into a crockpot using a slotted spoon, ensuring to discard any excess oil from the skillet.

Step 2

In the same skillet, elevate the flavors by heating up the remaining two tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Toss in the red pepper and minced garlic, stirring occasionally until they turn tender, which usually takes around 3 minutes. Merge this aromatic mix into the slow cooker with the savory turkey.

Step 3

Enhance the dish by incorporating kidney beans, black beans, black-eyed peas, tomato sauce, and a hint of habanero pepper into the slow cooker alongside the turkey medley. Opt for the High setting for a quicker 3-hour cook, or choose the Low setting for a more leisurely 7-hour simmer.

Step 4

With an hour left on the clock, introduce the corn kernels, a subtle touch of brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, fragrant basil, and earthy sage into the bubbling concoction. Let the chili continue to meld its flavors for the final hour. Before serving, don't forget to season according to your taste preferences with a sprinkle of salt.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep your spices in a cool, dark place to maintain their maximum flavor and potency.
  2. 2. Store your chili powder in an airtight container to prevent it from losing its heat and intensity.
  3. 3. Label all your spices and herbs clearly to avoid mix-ups when you're in the heat of the cooking moment.
