In a large non-stick skillet over medium heat, cook the lean ground turkey until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess moisture.
Transfer the cooked turkey to a slow cooker.
To the slow cooker, add the chopped onion, minced garlic, diced carrots, diced celery, diced tomatoes (with their juice), chicken broth, black beans, and frozen corn.
Stir in the seasonings: cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.
Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on HIGH for 4 hours, or on LOW for 7-8 hours, until the vegetables are tender and the flavors are well combined.
Taste the soup and adjust salt and spices as needed before serving.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh cilantro, if desired. Serve with lime wedges for a zesty finish, if you like.
Enjoy this comforting and healthy soup as a main course or alongside a salad or crusty bread.
