So I decided to get a little crazy today and make my own Turkey White Chili Soup, from scratch (I've always thought that was weird term).
Yes, I said soup. I didn't stop at chili, I stopped at Soup. You can make it more like "chili" by reducing the amount of liquid, or boiling for much, much longer. Your choice.
So here is how I did it, and honestly, it turned out good (if I do say so myself)!
Oh, and hubby liked it too, and he has VERY high standards.
4 T butter
1 med onion, chopped
5 cloves of garlic, diced
2 celery stalks, diced
8 c Homemade Stock (I used 6 cups turkey stock and 2 cups duck stock)
3 c chopped Leftover Turkey meat (or any meat) - We used smoked turkey
1 rounded Tablespoon Cumin
1/2 rounded teaspoon Paprika
1/2 rounded teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
2 1/2 rounded teaspoon Chili Powder
1 rounded teaspoon garlic powder
1 14oz can artichokes, chopped
1 can Green Chiles, not drained
S&P to taste
Option 1: Top bowls with chopped cilantro and sourcream
Option 2: Make it creamy by adding heavy whipping cream before serving
1. Melt butter in pot. Add onions and saute ~15 minutes, until they are soft and start to caramelize
2. Add garlic and celery. Saute an additional 5 minutes.
3. Add remaining ingredients, bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 1 hour.
Carb Breakdown: My calculations are 67 total carbs. My pot made 80.65 ounces of weight. Therefore, every ounce of weight = 1.2 grams of carbs.
Not too bad.
