Rinse the quinoa under cold water in a fine-mesh strainer to remove any bitterness.
In a small saucepan, combine the quinoa and chicken broth; bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until the liquid is absorbed and the quinoa is fluffy.
While the quinoa cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, and cook until browned and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the diced yellow onion and red bell pepper, sautéing for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Add the minced garlic, sea salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and dried oregano, stirring for 1 minute until fragrant.
Fold the cooked quinoa and baby spinach into the skillet, stirring until the spinach is just wilted and the flavors are well combined.
Serve immediately while hot.
