Instructions

Roughly chop the onions, bell pepper, and garlic and place in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Pulse, scraping down the sides as necessary, until the vegetables are finely chopped. Do not over-process.
Heat the oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped vegetables, chili powder, cumin, coriander, red pepper flakes, oregano, and cayenne pepper and cook, stirring often, for about 10 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
Add about 1¼ pounds of the turkey, increase the heat to medium-high, and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, for about 4 minutes until no longer pink.
Stir in the beans, diced tomatoes and their juice, crushed tomatoes, broth, and salt, and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, uncovered, for about 1 hour until the chili has begun to thicken.
Pat the remaining turkey together into a ball, then pinch off teaspoon-sized pieces of meat and stir into the chili. Continue to simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 40 minutes until turkey is tender and chili is slightly thickened.
Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary, and serve.
