Instructions
Step 1
Place a medium, heavy, stockpot to the front of either the right or left hand side of the Flexinduction® cooktop. Engage PowerMove™, add 2 tbsp. oil to stockpot on Level 9 and heat until oil is hot and starts to shimmer. Add turkey, 1 tsp. cocoa powder, 1 tsp. cumin, 1 tsp. oregano and 1/2 tsp. salt. Cook turkey 7 to 8 minutes or until browned and cooked through, stirring constantly and breaking up into medium crumbles. Remove turkey with a slotted spoon and place into a medium bowl; set aside.
Step 2
Wipe stockpot clean, if necessary, and add 2 tbsp. oil. Place onion, poblano peppers, ancho chilies, garlic, 1 tsp. cocoa powder, 1 tsp. cumin, 1 tsp. oregano and 1/2 tsp. salt to stockpot; sauté on Level 9 for 5 minutes stirring occasionally. Slide stockpot to Level 5 and sauté for an additional 5 minutes.
Step 3
Slide stockpot to Level 9; add tomatoes and cook for 3 minutes. Slide stockpot to Level 5 and cook for an additional 3 to 5 minutes or until tomatoes have started to soften and break down. Add pickled jalapeno juice, pickled jalapenos, adobo sauce and molasses and cook 2 minutes.
Step 4
Carefully spoon vegetable mixture into the bowl of a food processor and slide stockpot to level 1.5. Process vegetable mixture, scraping down the bowl as necessary, until mixture is the consistency of a chunky salsa. Pour vegetable mixture back into the stockpot and add masa harina; stir to combine.
Step 5
Slide stockpot to Level 9 and add the cooked turkey and chicken stock; bring to a boil. Slide stockpot to Level 5 and simmer 3 to 5 minutes or until heated through. Slide stockpot to Level 1.5 to keep warm.
