In a mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, mashed black bean paste, garlic powder, cumin, and half the salt. Mix thoroughly. Shape the mixture into 5 patties, each about 2 inches wide and 1/2 inch thick, using about 2 tablespoons for each. Let the patties chill in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to help them set.
Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Add the turkey bites and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side. Flip each patty only once, when it releases easily from the pan, and cook until deep golden. Done when no pink remains when you cut into one, 165°F.
While the turkey cooks, stir the Greek yogurt, hot sauce, lime juice, and the remaining salt together in a small bowl. Plate the hot turkey bites, garnish with the green onion, and serve with the yogurt dip on the side.
