Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound lean ground turkey
- 1 small yellow onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons taco seasoning (store‑bought or homemade)
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder (optional for extra heat)
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 (15‑ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 (15‑ounce) can kidney or pinto beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 (15‑ounce) can corn, drained (or 1 1/2 cups frozen corn)
- 1 (14.5‑ounce) can diced tomatoes (plain or with green chiles)
- 1 cup tomato sauce or salsa
- 3 cups low‑sodium chicken broth
- For serving: lime wedges, shredded cheese, sour cream or Greek yogurt, diced avocado, cilantro, green onion, tortilla chips
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the ground turkey and cook, breaking it up, until no longer pink, 5–7 minutes.
- Add the onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes, then stir in the garlic and cook 30 seconds.
- Sprinkle in taco seasoning, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Stir and cook 1 minute to bloom the spices.
- Add the black beans, kidney or pinto beans, corn, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce or salsa, and broth. Stir to combine and bring to a gentle boil.
- Reduce heat to a simmer and cook 15–20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until flavors meld and the soup slightly thickens. Adjust seasoning with more salt or spices as needed.
- Serve hot with lime wedges, cheese, sour cream, avocado, cilantro, green onions, and tortilla chips.
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- Freeze for up to 3 months.
- Use homemade taco seasoning for better flavor control.
- Add more broth if the soup is too thick.
