Creating the Perfect Turkey Chili is simple when you follow these easy steps:

1. Heat Oil: In a large pot over medium heat, add olive oil and heat until shimmering.
2. Cook Onions and Garlic: Add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes, or until the onion is translucent.
3. Brown the Turkey: Add the ground turkey to the pot. Cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon—approximately 5-7 minutes.
4. Add Bell Peppers: Stir in the diced bell pepper and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until softened.
5. Season the Mixture: Add chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Stir to combine all spices with the mixture.
6. Incorporate Tomatoes and Beans: Pour in the diced tomatoes (with juice), black beans, kidney beans, and corn. Stir well to mix evenly.
7. Simmer: Bring the chili to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer uncovered for about 20-25 minutes for the flavors to meld.
8. Taste and Adjust: Taste the chili and adjust seasoning if necessary. More salt or spices can be added based on preference.
9. Serve: Once the chili is cooked through and flavors are well combined, remove it from heat.
10. Garnish as Desired: Serve hot, garnished with your choice of cilantro, sour cream, cheese, or avocado.
