rec.food.recipes/Paul Royko (1997)

1 Tbsp vegetable oil
2 lbs ground turkey
1 1/2 cups chopped onion
1 clove garlic, minced
2 1/2 cups water
2 Tbsp chili powder
1 Tbsp dried parsley
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp dried mustard
1/8 tsp salt
2 (19-oz.) cans red kidney beans
1/2 lb mushrooms, sliced
1 (19-oz.) can stewed tomatoes, undrained
1 (4-oz.) can chopped green chiles
1 bay leaf

Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add turkey, onion and garlic; cook until turkey is browned, about 9 minutes, stirring to crumble. Drain and wipe drippings from pan with a paper towel.

Return mixture to pan. Add water and remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer for 1 hour. Uncover and simmer for 1 more hour, stirring occasionally. Discard bay leaf before serving.
