This is a thick, spicy, slow-cooked chili I adapted from another recipe. It’s great for parties or cold nights! Serve topped with shredded Cheddar cheese or crumbled cornbread.
Step: 1
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and cook until no longer pink and evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, place the cooked meat into a slow cooker, and drain any oil from the skillet.
Step: 2
Using the same skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Stir in the red pepper and garlic; cook until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir into the slow cooker with the turkey.
Step: 3
Stir the kidney beans, black beans, black-eyed peas, tomato sauce, and habanero pepper into the slow cooker with the turkey mixture. Set on High and cook for 3 hours, or on Low for 7 hours.
Step: 4
One hour before the time is up, stir in the corn, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, basil, and sage. Continue cooking the chili for the remaining hour. Season to taste with salt.

The name of “stew” can refer to both a dish and a cooking method. Stewing involves not fast cooking chunks of meat, vegetables or beans in a tastefull liquid . It’s similar to braising, but it does have a few notable differences. The meat is chopped into smaller pieces but of being cooked whole , and the water based material all of it covers the contents in a stew as different to a braise’s halfway all of it . When meat or raw fruit are cooked using this method, the resulting dish is called stew.
Stew has a perception for being a rib-sticking eating process that warms you up on a cold , winter day. It’s right that ; a bowl of classic beef stew does have warming properties , but stew’s cozy factor more than a way beyond protecting you from the cold . It’s all about those soft and chunks of meat and vegetables, swimming in a thick, ultra-rich gravy. The way they come together make the greatest comfort food, no matter the weather.
