HEARTY GROUND TURKEY CHILI
DH and I enjoyed this hearty chili from Norman Kolpas' "The Chili Cookbook." While the recipe calls for masa harina, I think I would omit it next time as the chili really did not need extra thickening and I think it detracted from the flavor just a bit. Also, DH and I ate this chili in a bowl, we did not serve it over rice. It lent itself well to this method. I used baby bellas for the mushrooms. Finally, we sprinked colby jack (I think that was what I had in the fridge) shredded cheese over the top, which I think is a must. Cheddar or a mexican blend of cheeses would also be good.

Steps:
- In a large saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add onions, garlic, paprika, chile flakes, cumin and coriander and saute 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add turkey and mushrooms, increase heat to high and saute until turkey is no longer pink, 7 to 10 minutes, stirring to break meat into rough chunks.
- Stir in remaining ingredients except masa and steamed rice.
- Bring to a boil, reduce heat slightly and simmer briskly, stirring occasionally, until mixture is fairly thick but still slightly liquid, about 1 1/4 hours.
- Sprinkle in masa, stir and simmer until thick, about 15 minutes more.
- Discard bay leaves.
- Serve over rice or robust boiled beans.

[email protected]This chili was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I think I would have liked it better if I had used a different type of chili powder.
