Preheat your oven to 375°F and slice the tops off the bell peppers, removing the seeds and internal membranes.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and sauté the diced yellow onion for 4 minutes until translucent.
Add the ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it into small crumbles with a spatula, and cook until browned through.
Stir in the black beans, tomato puree, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper, simmering for 2 minutes to meld flavors.
Stand the bell peppers upright in a baking dish and spoon the turkey mixture into each cavity until tightly packed.
Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil and continue baking for another 5 minutes until the peppers are soft and slightly charred on the edges.
Garnish the stuffed peppers with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.
