*Recipe* Chipotle Turkey & Sweet Potato Chili

It's been a while since I did a recipe, and I thought I better do one for winter, since it is again "Florida cold" here in Florida.   I found this recipe after subscribing to a Whole 30 mailing list, it was one of several Fall recipes that looked delicious.   This can be made in an instapot or a slow cooker, and I'll include both sets of directions.   I'll keep this description short, since I know that no one likes to read a novel before they get their recipe!

  • 1 Tb Coconut or Avocado oil
  • 1lb ground turkey
  • 1 cup diced onion
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 28oz diced fire roasted tomatoes
  • 1 medium sweet potato cut into small cubes
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 2tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp chipotle powder
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • optional: diced avocado, chopped cilantro, lime wedges

Directions
slow cooker:
  • Heat oil in medium sauce over medium high heat.
  • When oil starts to shimmer, add ground turkey and break up and cook 5 minutes.
  • Add onions and garlic and continue to cook 8-10 minutes until onions are translucent and turkey is cooked through.  
  • Transfer meat to slow cooker and add remaining ingredients tomatoes through chipotle powder.  
  • Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours until sweet potato is tender.
  • salt and pepper to taste and garnish with optional toppings.
Instapot:
  • select sauté setting on Instapot and add the oil.
  • When oil starts to shimmer, add ground turkey and break up and cook 5 minutes.
  • Add onions and garlic and continue to cook 8-10 minutes until onions are translucent and turkey is cooked through.
  • Add remaining ingredients and stir.
  • Lock lid in place and set vent valve to "sealing." Select manual high pressure and set cook time to 12 minutes.
  • When cooking time is up, use quick pressure release then remove lid when safe to do so. 
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste and garnish with optional toppings.
