Ingredients
Scale
Meat and Protein
- 4 slices Center Cut Bacon
- 1 pound raw Turkey Breakfast Sausage
Vegetables and Aromatics
- 1 White Onion, finely diced
- 1 Poblano or Bell Pepper, finely diced
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced or grated
Seasonings and Liquids
- 1 packet Chili Seasoning
- 28 oz can Fire Roasted Crushed Tomatoes
- 3–4 cups Beef Broth, to desired consistency
Instructions
- Cook the Bacon: Place the bacon slices in a Dutch oven or large soup pot over medium heat. Cook the bacon fully until crisp, then transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
- Sauté Vegetables: In the remaining bacon grease, add the diced onion and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 to 60 seconds until fragrant.
- Brown the Sausage: Add the turkey breakfast sausage to the pot, breaking it apart as it cooks. Cook thoroughly until browned and no longer pink.
- Add Remaining Ingredients: Stir in the chili seasoning packet, fire roasted crushed tomatoes, and beef broth. Chop or crumble the cooked bacon and add it back into the pot.
- Simmer the Chili: Bring the chili to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and let simmer gently for 45 to 60 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the chili to thicken to your preferred consistency.
Notes
- You can adjust the amount of beef broth to make the chili thicker or more soupy, according to your preference.
- Substitute ground pork or beef for the turkey sausage if preferred, though turkey keeps it leaner.
- For extra heat, add chopped jalapeños or a pinch of cayenne pepper along with the chili seasoning.
- This chili pairs well with eggs cooked your favorite way—try serving it with fried or poached eggs on top for a complete breakfast.
- Use a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot for even heat distribution during simmering.
