TURKEY CUTLETS WITH PUMPKIN-PISTACHIO MUFFIN STUFFIN' AND CHIPOTLE GRAVY

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the EVOO, once around the pan, and 2 tablespoons of the butter. When the butter melts into the oil, add the onions, celery, apples, and squash. Season with salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning. Sauté the vegetables and fruit for 5 minutes.

Adjust the seasoning, turn off the heat, and reserve the stuffing, tented loosely with foil.

Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of EVOO to the skillet and cook the cutlets for 6 minutes on each side, or until golden and cooked through. Transfer the meat to a platter and cover it with foil. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the skillet and reduce the heat to medium low. Add the flour to the butter and whisk together for 2 minutes, or until the flour smells nutty and the color is medium brown. Whisk in the wine or beer and cook it for 30 seconds.

TURKEY CHILI

Steps:

• In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon, until translucent and starting to brown at the edges, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Use a fork to fish the tomatoes out of the can and add them to the pot, leaving behind the juice for now. Season with salt and cook the tomatoes, breaking them up with the wooden spoon and stirring occasionally, until jammy and their liquid has reduced significantly, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Stir in the chili powder and cook until fragrant, just a few seconds. Add the ground turkey, season with salt and stir to combine, breaking up the meat with the spoon. (Don't worry about browning or cooking it through here, as it will do so when it simmers.) Stir in the reserved liquid from the tomato can.
• Use the fork to fish out as many chipotle peppers from the can as you would like, starting with two or three, and add to the pot, breaking them up with the wooden spoon, along with all of the adobo sauce. The more peppers you use, the spicier your final chili will be; if you like spice, just add the entire can. (Store any peppers you don't use in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week and in the freezer for up to 2 months.) Fill the empty chipotle can with cold tap water, swish it around and add to the pot. Stir to combine.
• Bring the chili to a simmer over medium-high heat - you should see occasional small bubbles breaking the surface of the mixture - then cover the pot and reduce the heat to continue simmering over medium-low, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has reduced and the tomatoes have broken down, about 20 minutes. The chili should look thick and shiny, but not too thick that you couldn't ladle it into a bowl. (If it's too watery, then simmer with the lid off for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.) Taste and add more salt if desired. Serve with cheese, sour cream and cilantro, if using.
