Brown the turkey:

1. Heat 1 tablespoon neutral oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the turkey and season with 1 teaspoon kosher salt and ½ teaspoon black pepper. Cook, breaking it up with a spoon, for 12 to 15 minutes until cooked through.

Add the minced garlic, 2 tablespoons of chili powder, 1 tablespoon of cumin, and ½ teaspoon of cayenne powder to the pot. Stir to cover with the spices and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Taste and add salt and pepper if needed.

Simmer the soup:
