1 1/4 lb lean ground turkey

1 cup chopped onion
1 1/2 tsp minced garlic
1 tbsp ground cumin
1 tbsp chili powder
1/4 tsp ground red pepper

Spray a large deep skillet with nonstick cooking spray; add turkey, onion and garlic. Cook mixture over medium-high heat, and break up with a wooden spoon or large spatula while cooking.

Sprinkle the spices over the turkey mixture and cook, stirring, until the turkey is no longer pink and is cooked through. Stir in the beans, tomatoes, and green chilies; reduce heat to medium. Cover the skillet and simmer chili for 10-12 minutes.

To serve, ladle into bowls and top with your choice of the serving ingredients.
