Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 2 tbsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 green bell pepper, roughly chopped
  • 5 scallions, sliced (white and green parts separated)
  • kosher salt
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 28-oz can diced fire-roasted tomtatoes
  • 2 cups low sodium chicken broth
  • 1 15-oz can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup crushed tortilla chips, plus more for topping
  • Sour cream and cheddar cheese, for topping (optional)

Method

  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the tomato paste, chili powder and cumin and cook, stirring, until the mixture darkens, about 1 minute. Add 1/2 cup water, the bell pepper, scallion whites and 1 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring, until the bell pepper is crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Add the turkey and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until cooked through, about 4 minutes
  • Stir the tomatoes, chicken broth, beans and crushed tortilla chips into the pot; bring to a simmer. Partially cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in all but a few tablespoons of the scallion greens and season with salt. Top with more crushed tortilla chips, sour cream, cheddar and the remaining scallion greens.
