| White Bean Turkey Chili or Chili Verde? Which is it? I'm not sure what I want to call this beauty although I've made her a few dozen times. Almost everything that goes into her pot is green in color, which for me, is most attractive. Cilantro, green onion, jalapenos, Poblano Peppers, tomatillos and topped with avocado. However, it is exceptional to put white beans in chili and the main spice is cumin instead of chili powder, so it's fitting to say white Bean chili. You toast the cumin seeds while browning the ground turkey. This alongside tons of garlic provides an awesome broth. |

| The verdict; After careful consideration I realize I have been making two distinct dishes. This above would be Chili Verde with the difference being, the main star here are the roasted tomatillos and Poblano Peppers. All the green goodness makes this spectacular. With my white Bean chili, I add a little flour to the browned meat as well as 1/2 of a packet of ranch dressing mix to create a creamier broth. The white beans I mash up half of them into the broth to make it even thicker. I'm so glad we could clear this up. |
