Turkey and Bean Chili

Turkey and Bean Chili

2 Tablespoons butter

½ onion finely chopped (or 1 T. dry onion)

2 cloves garlic, minced

¼ c. flour (I omit the flour if I am using the crockpot)

1 (32-ounce) chicken broth

1 (10-ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chilies

2 (15.5-ounce) cans Northern Beans (white beans)

3 c. chopped cooked turkey

1 T. chili powder (or less)

1 T. ground cumin (use as you like)

1 teaspoon chopped rosemary

-In a Dutch oven, (or big soup pot) melt butter over medium heat.

-Add onion and garlic and cook for 5 minutes, stirring.

-Add flour to onion mixture and stir constantly for 2 minutes.

-Add chicken broth, beans and tomatoes.

-Cook for 2 minutes then stir in turkey and spices, simmer for 15 minutes.

(Now if I am going to use a crock pot I just put it all in the crock and turn it on high for 5 hours or low for 8 hours) I usually add more chicken broth, which makes it more like soup.
