How to make Instant Pot turkey chili

Print this recipe
A big pot of chili is the thing to serve when friends come over to watch the game or on a chilly evening when you just want to hunker down with the family. The recipe below is great for both of these occasions and everything in between. And by making it in the Instant Pot, you’ll develop cooked-all-day flavor in a fraction of the time.
Chili is, by nature, a hearty, filling dish, but preparing it with ground turkey instead of the more traditional beef makes it a bit more healthful. Although lighter, this recipe is still packed with flavor from chili powder, cumin, paprika, and oregano. A bottle of beer is the secret ingredient that provides both depth and a bit of acid. Serve this spicy stew topped with grated cheddar cheese, sour cream, and hot sauce if you like.
