Instructions

  • Heat the olive oil in a big pot on medium-high heat until it starts to sizzle. Add the diced onion, minced garlic, bell pepper, and zucchini. Sauté the mixture, occasionally stirring, for 5 minutes or until the onion becomes translucent.
  • Add the ground turkey to the pot, stir to break down the turkey, and continue to cook for a further 5 minutes until the turkey is no longer pink.
  • Now add the chili powder, black pepper, pinto beans (along with the liquid from the can), diced tomatoes, and broth.
  • Allow the mixture to simmer uncovered over medium heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chili thickens and the vegetables become tender.
  • Serve the chili with the avocado, shredded cheese, and sour cream.
