Note
For extra flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of cumin or chili powder along with the black pepper.
This stew tastes even better the next day as the flavors meld together. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
You can substitute ground chicken for the turkey if preferred. For a heartier texture, use regular tortilla chips instead of low-fat crumbs.
If the stew becomes too thick during storage, add a splash of water or broth when reheating.
