Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. In a large heavy skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion, garlic, salt, chili powder, and oregano and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add the tomato paste and chipotle pepper sauce; cook for another 1 minute. ground turkey and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, until no raw pieces remain, about 3 minutes. Add the beer and simmer until reduced by half, about 8 minutes. Add the tomatoes, crushing them with your hands, along with the beans, and bring to a boil. Cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes.
  2. Divide the chili among deep bowls and add garnish of choice.

    Culinary advice: In a large frying pan, due to the larger surface area, the sauce evaporates faster than in a saucepan.
