In a small saucepan, combine the rice, water, and a pinch of the salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest, covered, for 5 minutes.
While the rice simmers, heat half the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the red and yellow bell peppers. Sauté for 5 minutes until tender-crisp, then remove from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining olive oil. Add the ground turkey, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and the rest of the salt. Cook, breaking up the meat with a spoon, for 6 to 8 minutes. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
Stir the lime juice into the turkey skillet. Fluff the rice with a fork and place it in a bowl. Top with the seasoned turkey and the sautéed peppers.
