WHITE BEAN, TURKEY, AND SAUSAGE CHILI
A family favorite vamp of chili from Grandma Cheryl! You MUST use a large cast-iron pan, or chili will not thicken as fast or as much! Can sub chicken breast for turkey cutlets. Jalapenos and hot sausage are optional, but add the most flavor if you're not scared of a little spice!

Steps:
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat, and pan-fry the turkey breast until the meat is no longer pink, about 10 minutes per side. Transfer the turkey breast into a bowl to cool; shred it with 2 forks. Set the turkey meat aside. In the same skillet, cook the onions and garlic over medium heat until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes; scrape the onions and garlic, along with any drippings, into the bowl with the turkey.
- Place 1 can of cannellini beans, the hominy, and the chicken broth into a slow cooker. With an immersion blender, blend the mixture until smooth. Transfer the shredded turkey, onions, garlic, 3 more cans of cannellini beans, the cilantro, cumin, and Cajun seasoning into the slow cooker, and stir to combine. Wearing gloves, cut off the serrano chile stems, split the chiles, and scrape the seeds and membranes from 2 of the chiles with a spoon. Mince all 3 chiles. For milder flavor, seed and remove membranes from all the chiles. Mix the serrano chiles into the soup.
- Cover the cooker, and cook on Low setting for 4 to 6 hours or High setting for 2 to 3 hours.

Steps:
- Saute onion and garlic. Add turkey, chili powder and cumin.
- Add beans, tomatoes with juice and chicken broth. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Add salt and pepper.
Tips:
- Soak the beans overnight: This will help to reduce the cooking time and make the beans more digestible.
- Use a variety of beans: White beans are the traditional choice for chili, but you can also use black beans, kidney beans, or pinto beans. Mixing different types of beans will give your chili a more complex flavor and texture.
- Don't skimp on the spices: Chili is a dish that is meant to be flavorful, so don't be afraid to add plenty of spices. Some classic chili spices include chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. You can also add other spices to your liking, such as cayenne pepper, oregano, or thyme.
- Use fresh vegetables: Fresh vegetables will give your chili a brighter flavor and more nutrients. Some good vegetables to use in chili include onions, peppers, carrots, and tomatoes. You can also add other vegetables that you like, such as corn, zucchini, or squash.
- Brown the meat before adding it to the chili: Browning the meat will help to develop its flavor and give the chili a richer color. You can brown the meat in a skillet over medium-high heat, or you can use a slow cooker to brown the meat on low for several hours.
- Simmer the chili for at least 30 minutes: This will help to develop the flavors and allow the spices to meld together. The longer you simmer the chili, the better it will taste.
- Serve the chili with your favorite toppings: Some popular chili toppings include shredded cheese, sour cream, diced onions, and chopped cilantro. You can also serve the chili with cornbread, crackers, or rice.
