Instant Pot Chipotle Turkey Chili – Recipe!

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

There’s nothing better than a big bowl of chili to warm you up on the inside during wintertime and my Instant Pot Chipotle Turkey Chili will do just that!

It’s been chilly and I have comfort food on the brain.  This poultry and bean combo provide a nice base for a big pot of chili, but it’s the seasonings that create such delicious flavor.

The classic dried spices of cumin, chili powder, paprika and onion powder are usually in the recipe, but if you haven’t used a Chipotle chili you don’t know what you’ve been missing.  Chipotle chilies do have a bit of heat, but when you combine them with hardy ingredients, like ground turkey, kidney beans and white beans, they seem to melt into the mix.

The spice blend becomes an earthy favorite after cooking – like it simmered away all day.  However, I like to prepare my chili in an Instant Pot, so the turkey tenderizes quickly, much different than prepared on the stove top.  Grab a bowl and spoon for chili night in minutes.
