In a big pot in a little olive oil, fry up the following.
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 small onion, diced
3 (or more) cloves garlic, diced
When softened, add
1 to 1.5 lbs ground turkey
Brown in all up.
Add
3 Chipotles (smoked jalapeños) reconstituted, seeded, and minced
0.5 to 1 oz unsweetened chocolate (a vital ingredient)
2 stalks celery, chopped up
8 oz canned kidney beans
16 oz canned crushed tomatoes
Cook for at least an hour over low heat. Refrigerate overnight. Reheat the next day and add 8 oz sour cream (I used low fat). This smooths out the sauce and enhances the flavor but kills the heat. So, adjust heat to personal preference level with chiles of choice. I added about 1 Tb dried, crushed red pequino powder. Serve over rice if you want.
