Directions

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a roasting pan, add tomatillos, onions, and garlic. Toss with 3 tablespoons of olive oil and 1 teaspoon of salt.

2. In a skillet, toast the cumin, coriander, fennel, and whole black pepper until fragrant wisps of smoke rise. Remove from heat. Use a clean spice (or coffee) grinder and grind until mixture becomes a powder.
3. In a large pot, add the remaining olive oil and ground turkey. Cook on medium heat, making sure to not overcook or brown. Add the tomatoes, spice mixture, and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes.
