Delicious Turkey Chili Recipe

This turkey chili is DA bomb! Washed it down with some Omission Gluten Free beer. Thanks to http://www.ambitiouskitchen.com/ for this yummy recipe! Switched out the sour cream with Siggis Dairy plain yogurt and OMG. Complete game changer. You LEGIT won’t even notice that it’s yogurt instead of sour cream. Mind officially blown.

Notes

A few comments about the chili being too spicy -- I used McCormick's Chili Powder in this recipe, which is very mild. If you're using something else, I would start with 2-3 tablespoons instead of 4. To make this recipe in the slow cooker: Reduce the chicken broth to 1/2 cup and brown the turkey and onions before adding to the slow cooker.
