Heat a large pot over medium-high heat.
Add the ground turkey to the pot and cook, breaking it up with a spatula, until it is browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
While the turkey is cooking, dice the onion.
Add the diced onion to the pot with the turkey and cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion becomes translucent.
Stir in the chili powder, cumin, and salt, ensuring the turkey and onion mixture is well-coated with the spices.
Add the crushed tomatoes and drained kidney beans to the pot. Stir well to combine.
Lower the heat to medium and let the chili simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking and to allow the flavors to meld.
Taste the chili and adjust seasoning with additional salt if needed.
Serve hot in bowls, optionally garnished with shredded cheese, sour cream, or chopped cilantro.
