Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1.5 pound ground turkey (lean)
1 yellow onion (medium, diced)
1 green bell pepper (large, diced)
3 clove garlic (minced)
2 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 can diced tomatoes (undrained)
1 can black beans (rinsed and drained)
1 cup chicken broth
0.75 teaspoon salt
0.5 teaspoon black pepper
0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese (for serving)

Instructions

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the lean ground turkey and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
Add the diced yellow onion and diced green bell pepper to the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic, chili powder, ground cumin, dried oregano, and cayenne pepper, cooking for 1 minute more until fragrant.
Stir in the undrained diced tomatoes, rinsed and drained black beans, and chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for at least 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld. Season with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
Serve hot, garnished with shredded cheddar cheese if desired.

Notes

For an extra kick, add an additional 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. Can be served with quick rice or tortilla chips for dipping.
