    Recipe



    -Lightly toast red chili peppers and green chili peppers on a griddle.

    -In a large skillet, saute chopped onion, crushed garlic cloves, and cumin seed over medium heat for about 10 minutes.
    -Add the chili pepper paste, chili powder, coriander, cinnamon, and pepper; saute for 5 minutes and set aside.
    -In a large kettle, brown ground turkey in oil.
    -Add chopped tomatoes, chicken broth, cider and chopped jalapenos.
    -Add the vegetable mixture and bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer uncovered for 30-45 minutes.
    -Just before serving, stir in unsweetened baking cocoa.
    -Garnish with chopped green onions, cilantro, and sour cream.
    ***Makes 8 servings.


    *Working with jalapeños or other chiles:
    -Capsaicin is the ingredient in chiles that causes the burning sensation associated with fresh peppers.
    -It's a good idea to use rubber gloves when handling fresh chiles. (Disposable surgical gloves, available at most drugstores, work best for this.)
    -If you choose not to use gloves, be extremely careful not to touch any part of your body, especially your eyes.
    -After you've finished handling the chiles, wash your knife and cutting board with hot soapy water to ensure that there is no carry-over to other foods that may come in contact with the peppers.
