Instant Pot Turkey Chili Recipe

This Instant Pot Turkey Chili recipe is a delicious pot of chili that is ready for dinner with minimal time or effort. It’s a one-pot meal!

The weather is changing!! Autumn is showing its first hints with cooler breezes, less humidity and a shift in the air. I love it!! I know it’s the end of August, but our weather here has been getting just a tiny bit fall-like and I couldn’t be happier. Pumpkin things are in the stores (yes, I’ve already purchased a few) and I feel like I’m sitting on my front porch with my pitch fork willing autumn into existence.

So with the turn of weather, I simply had to make chili for dinner. The evening was cool, the skies were overcast and chili was the perfect meal for us. The only thing I wish is that I had made some cornbread to go with it. But it was super tasty without!

ONE POT MEALS

The one thing I love about the Instant Pot is that most meals are truly a one-pot meal. This means I don’t have a pile of dishes in the sink, and that’s always a good thing. This delicious chili gets made from start to finish in your Instant Pot. The only other things you’ll need are a cutting board and knife! (Oh, and a can opener!)

INSTANT POT TURKEY CHILI RECIPE:

Instant Pot Turkey Chili

This is a no-bean chili recipe. If you prefer beans with your chili, simply stir in a can or two of drained/rinsed pinto beans. Just be sure to use a larger Instant Pot (8 qt) if you do that. I made this chili in a 6 qt pot and adding beans would fill the pot too full for proper cooking. If you have a 6 qt. pot and want beans, simply stir them in at the end.
