Creamy Wild Turkey Chili
As a sportsman, when you think of chili your mind naturally gravitates to the main ingredient being venison (if you had a productive fall) ...or possibly beef as a reliable back up.  This recipe will have you questioning that rationale.  It is a super simple recipe that incorporates one half of a wild turkey breast and ingredients that you can commonly find in your pantry.  It is a great way to incorporate wild turkey into your weeknight menu due to its simplicity.  Pre-cooking the breast only speeds up the process for those busy days and brings your total prep and cooking time under 1 hour.  Doubling the recipe is extremely easy if you find yourself cooking for a larger crowd. 
Process for turkey breast:
Clean the boneless breast thoroughly.  Add to an oven safe dutch oven and cover with ½ water, ½ chicken or vegetable stock.  Slow cook in the oven at 250 degrees for approximately 2 hours or until you can shred the meat with 2 forks.   
Ingredients:
•   1 cooked and shredded turkey breast (chicken can be substituted)
•   1 15 oz can black beans, drained
•   1 15 oz can whole kernel corn, undrained
•   1 10 oz can Rotel
•   32 oz chicken stock
•   8 oz cream cheese, softened
•   1 packet chili seasoning
•   Seasoning to taste
Process:
1.   In a large pot, combine cooked turkey, black beans, corn, Rotel, and chili seasoning.
2.   On medium heat, add chicken broth and bring to a simmer.
3.   Reduce heat to low and add cream cheese.
4.   Stir until the cream cheese is melted.
5.   Serve hot.

Chef's note:  Garnish with avocado, sour cream, cilantro, or shredded cheese.  This makes an excellent meal when served atop a baked potato. 

Serves: 6 bowls
