Steps:

• Place tomatillos, poblano peppers, and jalapenos cut side down on a baking sheet. Broil 3 inches from heat source for 3 to 5 minutes or until skins are charred.
• Place peppers in plastic zip-top bag and seal. Let stand 10 minutes. Remove and discard skins. Place tomatillos and peppers in food processor and process until smooth. Stir in salt.
• Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large Dutch oven. Add turkey and cook as specified on the package. Always cook to well done, 165 degrees F as measured by a meat thermometer.

INSTANT POT TURKEY CHILI VERDE

Steps:

• Select the Sauté setting on the Instant Pot and heat the oil. Add the turkey and sauté, breaking it up with a wooden spoon or spatula as it cooks, for about 5 minutes, until cooked through and no traces of pink remain. Add the onion, chiles, garlic, salt, oregano, cumin, and cayenne and cook, stirring occasionally, for another 5 minutes, until the onion has softened and is translucent. Stir in the pinto beans, salsa verde, and broth.
• Secure the lid and set the Pressure Release to Sealing. Press the Cancel button to reset the cooking program, then select the Bean/Chili setting and set the cooking time for 20 minutes at high pressure.
• Let the pressure release naturally for at least 10 minutes, then move the Pressure Release to Venting to release any remaining steam. Open the pot and stir in the chopped cilantro.
• Ladle into bowls and serve hot, topped with the cheese.
