Ingredients
  • 3 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 pound lean ground turkey
  • 2 onions, chopped
  • 2 zucchinis, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoon chili powder
  • 2 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • 72 ounce cans diced unsalted tomatoes, with liquid
  • 45 ounce cans black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 ounce bittersweet chocolate
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
  • diced jalapeƱos
  • baked tortilla chips
Directions
  1. In a large, heavy pot or a large enameled cast-iron casserole dish, set over medium-high heat, heat the oil. Add the ground turkey and cook, breaking the turkey with a wooden spoon and stirring, until browned, about 5 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer to a bowl and set aside. Add the onions and zucchini to the pot and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent, about 6-8 minutes. Add the garlic, chili, cumin, oregano, salt, and black pepper and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add the turkey, tomatoes with the liquid, beans, and chocolate, stir until chocolate melts. Simmer the chili over low heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  2. Serve the garnishes in individual bowls as a toppings bar, or serve individually, topping each bowl with a dollop of sour cream, sprinkle of cheese, and scallions. Kids can crumble tortilla chips on top.
