Most chilis take hours to make. They require slow-cooking, pressure-cooking, or just very, very patient simmering. I found a recipe that takes about 30 min to make from start to finish, and it is one of my favorites. Each time I make it, I have the best intentions to document it...but always fail to. Today, I finally remembered!

I love weekends. Paired perfectly with cornbread, recipe from Use Real Butter.
30-Minute Turkey Chili
Ingredients:
- 3 T olive oil
- medium yellow onion, chopped
- 5 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 t oregano
- 1 lb ground turkey (or other ground meat or meat-sub)
- 12 oz beer or broth
- 28 oz diced tomatoes
- 14 oz black beans, kidney beans, pinto beans, and/or corn (or any other veggies, canned or fresh, for that matter)
- Salt to taste
- Saute the onions and garlic in the olive oil. Add salt and oregano, and cook until onions are done all the way through (they've turned slightly clear).
- Add in the ground turkey, and break up into small pieces. Cook until turkey is no longer raw.
- Add in the liquid, and simmer for 10 min.
- Add in remaining ingredients, and simmer for at least another 10 min. Salt to taste.
