Directions: |
Directions:1. Heat 1 T of oil in a large stock-pot over medium-high heat. Crumble turkey into the pot, stirring with a wooden spoon to break apart as much as possible. Season with taco seasoning mix, coriander, oregano, chili flakes, and tomato paste, and mix until meat is evenly coated with seasoning. Continue cooking, reducing heat if necessary, until turkey is well browned.
2. Pour in beef broth and simmer to reduce liquid slightly, about 5 minutes. Add salsa, tomatoes, and green chilies, and continue cooking at a moderate simmer for 10 minutes.
3. While chili is cooking, heat 1 T of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook onion and green bell pepper, stirring occasionally for 5 minutes, or until onion is translucent and bell pepper is lightly browned. Add onion and bell pepper to the chili, and continue cooking at a very low simmer.
4. In the same skillet, heat the remaining T of oil over medium-high heat. Add the zucchini to the chili, reduce heat and continue cooking 15 minutes more.
5. Place in soup bowls and garnish with green or red onions, sour cream or yogurt and cheddar cheese. |

Notes: My greatest critic, Justin, suggested adding 1 (14.5) ounce kidney beans, drained and 1 cup fresh or frozen corn to enhance the richness and flavor which was an excellent idea!
