Instant Pot Turkey Chili

Step 1

Turn the Instant Pot to “Sauté” or “Sear” mode; heat olive oil in the pot. When the oil shimmers, add the onion and cook about 5 minutes or until it begins to caramelize around the edges. Stir in the garlic and cook another minute. Add the turkey and brown all over, breaking up the meat as you go, about 5-7 more minutes. Drain fat and return turkey mixture to the pot.

Step 2

Add the broth, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, ketchup, beans, chili powder, salt and bay leaf to the pot. Stir to combine.

Step 3

Turn the Instant Pot to the “Chili” setting (or if you don’t have a “Chili” setting, use the manual setting on “High”) and place the lid on the pot. Cook for 18 minutes. It will take the pot about 10-12 minutes to come to pressure before the 18-minute timer starts running, so be sure to account for that additional time when preparing the meal. When the timer is done and your chili is ready, perform a quick release with the vent.

Step 4

Remove bay leaf, ladle chili into bowls, and garnish with optional toppings!
