This hearty turkey chilli is an excellent way to transform leftovers into a vibrant, high-protein meal. By using pre-cooked turkey, the preparation time is significantly reduced, making it a perfect mid-week dinner for busy households. The base is built on softened onions and peppers, combined with smoky chipotle and sweet brown sugar to create a deep, savoury sauce that perfectly coats the black beans and succulent meat.
As a nutritious, low-fat alternative to traditional minced beef recipes, this dish is ideal for those looking for a balanced, protein-rich option. Serve it in deep bowls topped with cooling soured cream, creamy avocado, and a squeeze of fresh lime to cut through the spice. It is a versatile homemade favourite that tastes even better the next day.
