Turkey chili with couscous

1 lb lean ground turkey

1 onion

1 can of diced tomatoes

1 can of Goya red beans (black beans are also delicious)

1 can of "Mexi-corn" or corn with peppers

Chili powder

Chicken broth

Salt and Pepper

Couscous 

Chili is one of the easiest things to make and this particular recipe is also low-calorie while filling you up with the good stuff. This takes less than 30 minutes so it's a great weeknight meal. 

In a pan, heat olive oil on high heat and add ground turkey. Brown, stirring occasionally. 

When the meat is nearly cooked through, add the onions and chili powder. Cook the onions for a few minutes until they are softer. 

Stir the meat and then empty all three cans - tomatoes, beans and corn. I didn't add the whole can of corn. 

Stir it all in and add some chicken broth to cover the bottom of the pan. 

Cover, and boil for 10 or more minutes. 

While the chili is coming together, boil water for the couscous. The ratio of water to couscous is one to one - so I made one cup of couscous and boiled one cup of water. Once the water boils, add salt and couscous, stir, TURN OFF THE HEAT and then cover. 

Set a timer for 5 minutes. 

After 5 minutes, take the lid off and "fluff" the couscous with a fork, breaking it apart. 

I serve the chili and couscous side-by-side. This batch was so good, we each went back for seconds. Yum!

Enjoy!
