Turkey Chili

(makes 4 servings)

Ingredients:

• 1 can (11 oz) tomatillos, drained
  
• 1½ cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
  
• 1 tomato, chopped
  
• ¼ cup (packed) cilantro leaves
  
• 2 Tbsp. chopped parsley
  
• 1 tsp. ground cumin
  
• 1 large onion, chopped
  
• 1 Tbsp. minced garlic (about 3 cloves)
  
• 1 Tbsp. canola oil
  
• 2 tsp. dried oregano
  
• 1 lb. lean ground turkey
  
• ¼ tsp. salt
  

Preparation:

• Puree tomatillos, broth, tomato, cilantro, parsley, cumin, ½ cup of onion, and 2 tsp. of garlic in food processor or blender.
  
• Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add remaining onion and cook until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add oregano and remaining garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until onion is soft, about 2 minutes.
  
• Add turkey and salt and cook over medium-high heat, breaking up meat, until no longer pink, about 5 minutes.
  
• Pour tomatillo mixture into pan and cook until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and ground black pepper to taste.
  
• Ladle chili over rice or into tortillas to serve and garnish with more cilantro, if desired. Pass hot sauce separately for those who want more heat.
