Instructions
- In a large heavy-bottomed saucepan or Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion & celery and cook until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic & cook for 30 seconds. Add the ground turkey, 1 t. salt, cumin, fennel seeds, oregano, & chili powder. Cook, stirring frequently, until the turkey is cooked through, about 8 minutes. Stir the flour into the turkey mixture. Add the beans, Swiss Chard, corn, & chicken stock. Bring the mixture to a simmer, scraping up the "brown bits" that cling to the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Simmer for 55-60 minutes until the liquid has reduced by about half & the chili has thickened. Add the red pepper flakes & simmer for another 10 minutes. Season with salt & freshly ground pepper, to taste.
- Ladle the chili into serving bowls. Sprinkle with the Parmesan Cheese & chopped parsley.
