- 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 package Carroll Shelby's® White Chicken Chili Kit
- 1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, minced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced

Directions
- Make Chili: Cook turkey in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat, stirring, about 10 minutes, until cooked through. Remove turkey to a plate, drain fat and wipe out pot.
- Cook pancetta in the same pot over medium-high heat, stirring, about 5 minutes, adding oil if needed, until browned and crispy. Drain on paper towels
- Add enough oil to the fat to make 1 tablespoon. Add onions, garlic and salt and cook, stirring, about 5 minutes, until softened.
