Turkey Chili

This recipe is from Food TV's Corbin Tomaszeski and is also good made with ground chicken. It is quite spicy so feel free to adjust the amount of heat, as I did. I didn't add the red pepper flakes when I made it but put the jar on the table so that my husband could make it spicier for himself!
