Before serving, remove the green chile pepper halves. Garnish with the remaining fresh cilantro. Serve hot with your favorite taco toppings, such as shredded cheese, sour cream, avocado, or tortilla chips.
For a spicier soup, leave the seeds in the green chile pepper or add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the pot.
To make this soup vegetarian, substitute the ground turkey with crumbled plant-based ground meat or an additional can of beans.
This soup freezes exceptionally well. Allow it to cool completely before transferring it to freezer-safe containers. It can be stored in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
Taste and adjust seasonings as needed before serving. A squeeze of extra lime juice can brighten the flavors.
Consider using fire-roasted diced tomatoes for a smokier depth of flavor.
