MAKING
For the chili:
5. In a large sauté pan, crumble and brown the turkey in a tablespoon of olive oil, over medium high heat.
6. Add the tomato sauce, salsa, water, beans and seasonings and stir to combine all of the ingredients.
7. Cover and simmer for at least 30 minutes but longer would be fine.
In the meantime make your fries.
8. Divide the prepared potatoes between the 2 pans making sure each fry has contact with the pan.
9. Bake them in the preheated oven for 25 minutes then rotate the pans and flip the fries and bake them for an additional 20 minutes. When they’re crispy and tender, sprinkle them with a little chili powder.
SERVING
