Homeade Chili Recipe (Nutritional info provided) - Saturday, February 24, 2007 10:26 PM ( #1 )
I have been making chili for a couple of years now and have had several people ask me for my recipe.  The problem was, I didn't have it written down because I'm always tinkering with the ingredients.  Tonight, I quantified the recipe and figured out the nutritional information.
 
Ingredients:
1.25 lbs lean ground turkey
1 onion, chopped
3/4 green pepper, chopped
3 serrano chilis, chopped
1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 Tsp black pepper
30 oz tomato sauce
6 oz tomato paste
15 oz black beans (canned)
15 oz kidney beans (canned)
1/2 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 Tsp Tabasco
1/2 Tsp cumin
1/2 Tbsp cayenne pepper
3 Tbsp chili powder
2 Cups drinking water
 
Directions:
1)  Put 1 Tbs of olive oil in a large pot.  Cut up onion, green pepper, Serrano chilis, and garlic and add to pot.  Cook vegetables on medium heat for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently.
2) Add ground turkey.  Add pepper.  Cook until browned, stirring frequently.
3) Add remaining ingredients (EXCEPT BEANS).  Add tomato sauce and water first.  Stir as you add ingredients.  Bring to a gently boil on medium high heat.  Reduce heat to low and cook for 30-60 mins.  Stir regularly.
4) Drain and rinse canned beans.  Then, add to pot.  Bring to a gentle boil on medium heat and return to low heat.  Cook an additional 15-30 mins on low heat.
5) Enjoy!

* Nutritional information was used as provided on product.  Additional information (peppers, onion, etc) was found at [url]www.nutritiondata.com[/url].  
**Note that there is considerably less sodium present in the chili than the nutritional info states.  When the beans were drained and rinsed, a great deal of sodium was removed.  This was not taken into account for the nutritional info since I could not find an appropriate way to measure this.
