Too busy to cook but want a hot, hearty meal? Try this quick and flavorful chili
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 pound lean ground turkey or ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped
1 medium yellow pepper, chopped
1 (1.25-ounce) package chili seasoning mix
4 cups vegetable juice cocktail
2 (14.5-ounce) cans chili-style chunky tomatoes
1 (16-ounce) can dark red kidney beans
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup (2 ounces) cheddar cheese, shredded
Heat oil in 4-quart saucepan; add turkey, onion and yellow pepper. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until turkey is no longer pink and vegetables are tender (5 to 8 minutes).
Stir in chili seasoning mix. Stir in all remaining ingredients except sour cream and cheese. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until chili comes to a boil (5 to 7 minutes).
To serve, dollop each serving with 1 tablespoon sour cream; sprinkle with 1 tablespoon cheese.
