One other good factor about this recipe is that many of the substances are most likely in your pantry already (apart from the chopped inexperienced chili). Turkey and chilis are a surpisingly good mixture. Since turkey has such a powerful taste (versus hen) it’s a nice distinction to the spiciness of the pepper.
