- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 Onion (small, diced)
- 1 Bell pepper (diced, any color)
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Oregano (dried)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
- 0.25 cup Chicken broth (low sodium, or water)
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice (freshly squeezed)

Directions
Step 1
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Step 2
Add the diced onion and bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened.
Step 3
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for another 30 seconds, until fragrant.
Step 4
Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and add the ground turkey to the other side. Cook for 6-8 minutes, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until the turkey is browned and cooked through.
Step 5
Stir the vegetables and turkey together, then add the chili powder, ground cumin, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the ingredients evenly in the spices.
Step 6
Add the black beans, tomato paste, and chicken broth to the skillet. Stir well to combine.
Step 7
Lower the heat and let the mixture simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is reduced and the flavors are well combined.
Step 8
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the lime juice.
Step 9
Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. If desired, garnish with chopped cilantro before serving.
Step 10
Serve warm as a filling for burritos, tacos, or over rice, and enjoy!
