Spicy Ancho Turkey Chili

I'm just crazy about this chili!

This hearty, spicy and incredibly delicious chili with Texan-Mexican notes is just a masterpiece! I know that I often say that 99% of the dishes I cook are simply divine, and I understand your doubts (obsession? or too many emotions?), but I just can't help but share this recipe!

The combination of smoked ancho, minced turkey, faro, nuts and baked tomatoes is simply incredible!

Simplicity and versatility in one recipe!

This is the perfect recipe for those who like to cook easily and quickly.

You can use minced turkey, beef or chicken, black beans, onions, spices, canned tomatoes, salsa and your favorite cereals.

And it's very fast! 30 minutes and dinner is ready!

Let's talk about Farro!

Chili starts with minced turkey fried with jalapeno, red onion and garlic, and seasoned with ancho and cumin. Then salsa is added, chopped tomatoes with black beans and... farro!

I'm just in love with Farro! It gives the chili an incredible texture, makes it more satisfying and adds a pleasant nutty taste.

To enjoy this dish to the fullest, stock up on your favorite tortilla chips, all sorts of delicious additives and, perhaps, a cozy sofa, sweatpants and a large hoodie.

But let's not get distracted from the main thing — this chili is just incredible!

You have a choice!

You can cook this dish without turkey. It turns out very tasty without it! Vegetarians, rejoice! Of course, you can completely abandon minced meat (but it will be sad!), and use ground beef or another option.

But most importantly — do not forget about the fillings!

Green onions, sour cream, grated cheese, tortilla chips, coriander — all this will make your chili just magical.

Mix all these ingredients and you will get an incredible Texas-Mexican blend.

Frequently Asked Questions:

How to make chili sweeter?
Add one to two tablespoons of tomato paste to the meat mixture before adding the salsa, tomatoes and water.

Is 30 minutes enough to cook chili?
Chili (like many other dishes) becomes tastier after several hours of infusing. If possible, cook it in a slow cooker and let it brew for several hours. But even 30 minutes is enough to get a delicious dish.
