Quick White Bean & Turkey Chili

This White Bean Turkey Chili made in the Instant Pot is easy to make and so delicious!

Everyone is talking about the Instant Pot! It’s a hot item this holiday season. Many of my friends on Facebook posted that they picked one up on Black Friday. I already owned one – I bought it last year. However, I haven’t used it as much as I would have liked. I think it’s because it intimidated me. I mean, this kitchen appliance, can do SO MUCH. It’s a pressure cooker, slow cooker, yogurt maker, rice cooker and more.

Disclosure: Our sponsor Workman Publishing introduced us to an exciting new Instant Pot cookbook. All opinions on this blog are my own.

I recently received a copy of the cookbook, How to Instant Pot by Daniel Shumski. It’s newly released and has been in stores since October 31, 2017. This cookbook was exactly what I needed to give me the confidence to start using my Instant Pot again. Not only does it feature over 100 delicious one-pot recipes, but it also teaches you how to use the Instant Pot. It’s the only Instant Pot cookbook organized by function and also shows you what all those buttons on the Instant Pot do. Once you master the Instant Pot, it will change the way you cook.

    I loved the wide variety of recipes and I can easily see many becoming family favourites. I selected a Quick Chili recipe to try using the Pressure Cooker function. Quick White Bean and Turkey Chili appealed to me because it had simple ingredients. I also wanted to get more practice using the Pressure Cooker function on the Instant Pot. 

    Many of the ingredients I had on hand in my pantry already. I only had to pick up the veggies and ground turkey on my trip to the grocery store.

    I love that feature of the Instant Pot because it means less dishes for me to clean up afterwards. I’m notorious for making a mess in the kitchen when I’m cooking.

    The fastest chili recipe! Make this simple chili in the Instant Pot with a homemade spice blend and lean turkey for a healthy meal in a flash.

    Ingredients
     
     

    • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
    • 1 medium green bell pepper stemmed, seeded and chopped
    • 1 medium white or yellow onion chopped
    • 2 large stalks celery leaves discarded, chopped
    • 1 clove garlic finely chopped
    • 1 lb ground turkey
    • 2 tbsp chili powder
    • 1 tsp salt plus extra as needed
    • ¼ tsp freshly ground pepper plus extra as needed
    • ½ tsp dried oregano
    • 3 tbsp tomato paste
    • 1 can diced tomatoes 14 ½ oz can, undrained
    • 1 can white kidney beans 15 oz can white beans, such as great northern or white kidney, drained and rinsed
    • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese for garnish
    • 2 green onions trimmed and thinly sliced, for garnish

    Instructions

    • Press Sauté and use the Sauté or Adjust button to select the middle temperature (“Normal”). Place the vegetable oil in the inner pot, wait about 1 minute for it to warm, then add the bell pepper, onion, celery and garlic. Cook with the lid off, stirring occasionally to break up, until the onions soften slightly, about 5 minutes.
    • Add the turkey and use a wooden spoon or silicone spatula to break it up into small pieces as it cooks. Cook the turkey until it is no longer pink, about 5 minutes.
    • Add the chili powder, salt, pepper, oregano, tomato paste, and diced tomatoes with their juices and stir until everything is evenly mixed.
    • Close and lock the lid. Set the valve to Sealing. Press Cancel, then press Manual or Pressure Cook and use the Pressure or Pressure Level button to select High Pressure. Use the – or + button to set the time to 20 minutes.
    • When the cooking cycle ends, carefully use a wooden spoon to release the pressure by turning the pressure-release valve to Venting. (The pressure is released when the small metal float valve next to the pressure-release valve sinks back into the lid and the lid is no longer locked.)
    • Press Cancel and remove the lid. Add the beans, stirring to distribute them evenly, then close and lock the lid to allow the residual heat to warm the beans, about 5 minutes.
    • Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt and pepper as needed. Serve the chili hot, garnished with the shredded Cheddar and scallions.

    Notes

    Quick White Bean and Turkey Chili will keep, in an airtight container in the refrigerator, for up to 4 days. To reheat, place it in a pot and warm on the stovetop over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until hot, about 5 minutes.
