2 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (4 to 5)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 stick (8 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter
2 cups chopped poblano chiles (from 2 large)
1 onion, diced (1 1/2 cups)
3 carrots, diced (1 1/4 cups)
1 stalk celery, diced (1/2 cup)
8 ounces white potato, peeled if desired and cut into 1/2-inch dice (1 1/2 cups)

SHEET PAN TURKEY CHILI WITH CORNBREAD "DUMPLINGS"



Sheet Pan Turkey Chili with Cornbread

A different way to prepare chili and cornbread! This is a bit on the spicier side, so go easy on the chili powder and jalapenos for a milder version. This really fills up the sheet pan to the top, but don't worry, it will fit! If you're worried about spills, place aluminum foil on the oven rack before baking.
