Ingredients

For the chili:

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 white onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 medium sweet potato peeled and diced into ~½" pieces
  • 15 ounce can diced tomatoes
  • 28 ounce can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 15 ounce can Pinto beans
  • ½ cup dry quinoa
  • 2 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 ½ cups chicken broth

For topping:

  • diced avocado

Instructions

  • Set pressure cooker/Instant Pot to saute/brown setting.
  • Add the olive oil. Once it is hot, add the diced onion, garlic, and ground turkey.
  • Cook until the ground turkey is browned, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks, and the onion is translucent.
  • Add the remaining chili ingredients, season with salt, and stir to combine.
  • Cover with lid and secure pressure valve to closed.
  • Cook on high pressure for 10 minutes.
  • Let the valve naturally release for 10 minutes and then slowly release the valve until pressure has fully released.
  • Remove lid and stir.
  • Serve topped with your choice of toppings. We love avocado, shredded cheese, green onions, and cilantro.
  • Enjoy!
