Warm the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bell pepper and jalapeño and cook until beginning to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the turkey, garlic, chili powder, cumin, salt, chipotle powder, and paprika and sauté until turkey is crumbly and cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the beans and continue cooking until warmed through. Taste and adjust seasoning.
Serve the turkey mixture alongside a buffet of desired accompaniments for eaters to pick and choose, or combine the turkey mixture with the desired accompaniments and toss together in a large serving bowl.
