Notes
Slow Cooker Instructions:
Start by heating the oil in a large skillet oven over medium heat. Add in the onion and garlic and sauté, stirring frequently until the mixture is fragrant and the onion is translucent.
Add in the ground turkey, salt and pepper and cook until the turkey is browned evenly and cooked through.
Add all your ingredients (except for the toppings) including the cooked turkey, onions and garlic to your slow cooker/crockpot and cook on high for 4 hours or low for 7-8 hours until veggies are cooked and tender.
Instant Pot instructions:
Add oil to Instant Pot and put on sauté setting. Add onion and garlic and sauté for about 5 minutes, until fragrant. Add turkey, salt and pepper to the pot and cook, breaking apart meat with a spatula until evenly brown and cooked through.
Press cancel on the Instant Pot and add stock, tomatoes, kidney beans, black beans, corn, chili powder, paprika, cumin, oregano and cayenne pepper. Place the lid on the pressure cooker, lock lid and make sure the pressure release valve is closed.
Then press the soup/stew button or "pressure cook" and set time to 15 minutes.
Once the timer reaches 0, the cooker will switch to keep warm. Carefully switch the pressure release valve to open to manually release the pressure. (I use tongs for this).
