How to Make Turkey Taco Soup

  1. Brown 1 lb ground turkey in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and cook until the turkey is browned and the onion is translucent (about 5 minutes).
  3. Stir in 1 (15-ounce) can of diced tomatoes, undrained, 1 (15-ounce) can of kidney beans, rinsed and drained, 1 (15-ounce) can of corn, drained, 1 (10-ounce) can of diced tomatoes and green chilies (like Rotel), 1 cup of chicken broth, 1 tablespoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), and salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Bring the soup to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the flavors have melded and the soup has thickened slightly.
  5. Serve hot, garnished with shredded cheddar cheese, crushed tortilla chips, and Tabasco sauce to taste.
