Ingredients
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons chili powder
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
- 1 cup beer

- 1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
- 2 cans (15 oz each) great northern beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 pound ground turkey
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
-
Prepare the Base: Start by melting the butter in a large soup pot over medium heat. Once melted, add the finely chopped onion, minced garlic, and any peppers youโre using (optional). Sautรฉ the mixture, stirring frequently, for about 3 minutes, or until the onions become translucent and softened.

-
Add Spices: Stir in the chili powder and ground cumin. Continue to cook the spices with the onion and garlic for another 3 minutes, ensuring you stir constantly to prevent burning.
-
Incorporate Tomatoes: Add the diced tomatoes along with their juice to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then pour in the beer and water. Stir well to incorporate all ingredients and to loosen any browned bits that may have stuck to the bottom of the pot.
-
Combine Ingredients: Mix in the corn kernels, great northern beans, and ground turkey. Stir everything together to ensure even distribution of all the ingredients.
-
Simmer: Reduce the heat to medium-low. Let the chili simmer uncovered for about 30-40 minutes, or until it thickens to your desired consistency. Stir occasionally to ensure the chili does not stick to the bottom of the pot.
-
Season: Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed before serving.
