- 1 – 15-ounce can of corn kernels, drained

Preparation
Step 1
1.Pre-heat the oven to 350º F.
2.Heat one tablespoon of the oil in the Blue Jean Chef Flameproof Multi-Roaster over medium heat. Add the turkey and brown in batches. Set the browned turkey aside and reserve. Drain off all but 2 tablespoons of the fat and add the onion, carrot, celery, peppers and garlic and sweat until tender – about 6 to 8 minutes.
3.In a large bowl combine the reserved turkey, white beans, garbanzo beans, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, chili powder, cumin, chicken stock, salt and pepper and add to the Multi-Roaster, leaving the center empty. Bring the mixture to a simmer on the stovetop and then transfer the Multi-Roaster to the oven. Bake for 30 minutes.
4.Meanwhile, for the cornbread, in a medium bowl mix together the corn bread mix according to the package directions and stir in the corn kernels.
5.After 30 minutes, remove the Multi-Roaster from the oven and increase the oven temperature to 375º F. Brush the center cavity of the Multi-Roaster with the butter and add the cornbread batter. (It’s okay to let the batter spill over into the chili as it will create an interesting crust.) Return the Multi-Roaster to the oven and bake for another 25 to 35 minutes until the cornbread is golden brown, or until a wooden pick inserted into the cornbread comes out clean.
6.To serve, top chili with cheese, sour cream and fresh cilantro.
