The Ginger Goat Original smoked pineapple & ginger sauce was our inspiration for this white chili creation. Ground turkey, tomatillos, and white kidney beans keep it lean and healthy without sacrificing any of the flavour. The jalapenos, chipotle peppers and adobo sauce give this chilli a decent amount of heat, so go easy on the OG, and let your guests add their own as a topper.
