Instructions
Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and heat it for a minute. Add the onion, red pepper, and poblano pepper and saute them for 5 minutes or until softened.
Add the ground turkey to the pan and break it up with the back of your cooking spoon. Cook and continue to crumble it until the turkey is no longer pink.
Add the taco seasoning and stir together with the turkey. Cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Quickly pour in the tomatoes and their juices and stir. Add the frozen corn and stir to combine.
Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes.
Turn the heat off and then sprinkle the cheese over the top of the turkey mixture. Cover the skillet loosely with the lid (or aluminum foil) and let the cheese melt over the next couple of minutes.
Serve the skillet on a trivet at the table with the cilantro and green onions as garnish. Add dollops of sour cream if desired and scoop up the turkey with tortilla chips.
