Turkey Chili Soup with Hominy

(from largomason’s recipe box)

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons ancho chile powder
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon chipotle powder
  • Salt
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 3 cups beef stock or low-sodium broth
  • One 15-ounce can hominy, drained and rinsed
  • Shredded cheddar, chopped cilantro, sour cream and tortilla chips, for serving

Directions

  1. In medium saucepan, heat olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering, then add onion and garlic and cook, stirring often, until beginning to soften, 3 minutes. Add turkey, ancho powder, cumin, and chipotle powder. Season with pinch of salt, then cook, breaking up turkey with a wooden spoon, until meat is lightly browned and liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes.

  2. Sprinkle flour and cook for a minute, then add in tomato paste and cook for a minute longer. Add stock and hominy and bring to a boil, then simmer until thickened slightly, 15-20 minutes.

  3. Ladle soup into bowls and serve with garnishes as desired.
