2. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more, until fragrant.
3. Add 1 pound ground turkey and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, for 5-7 minutes, until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
4. Stir in 1 bell pepper (any color), chopped; 1 cup frozen corn; and 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained.
5. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Add 2 scallions, thinly sliced; 1 teaspoon chili powder; 1/2 teaspoon cumin; 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional); 1/4 teaspoon salt; 1/4 teaspoon black pepper; and 1-2 teaspoons of your favorite hot sauce (adjust to taste). Stir well to combine.
6. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the flavors have melded and the turkey is cooked through.
7. Serve hot, topped with your favorite shredded cheese (about 1/2 cup per serving) and crushed tortilla chips.
