In a large skillet heat to medium heat. Spray with cooking spray and brown ground turkey until it is cooked through and there is no pink left. While cooking, season the ground turkey with cumin, black pepper, and salt. Once the meat is browned, drain off any excess fat and set aside.
In the same pan, spray with more cooking spray and add the mixed peppers and cook to until softened. While the peppers are cooking, open and drain the can of black beans. Add ground turkey back to the skillet along with the black beans. Stir to combine.
Add the salsa ranchero and jalapeƱos and let come to a bubble. Once the taco meat comes to a bubble, reduce heat to low and allow to simmer for another 5-7 minutes.
Top the cheesy turkey taco skillet with shredded cheese. Transfer to the oven to broil to melt the cheese for approximately 1-2 minutes or until the cheese has melted and is bubbly. Lastly, top with traditional garnishes like cilantro, green onions, sliced fresh avocado, and sour cream.
