In a small pot, combine the rice, water, and half the salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let rest, covered, for 5 minutes.
While the rice simmers, heat the avocado oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and bell peppers. Cook for 5 minutes until the onion is translucent and peppers are slightly softened.
Add the ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon. Add the garlic, chili powder, cumin, red pepper flakes, and the rest of the salt. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes until the turkey is cooked through and opaque in the center. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
Stir the lime juice into the turkey mixture. Fluff the rice with a fork and place it in a bowl. Top with the turkey and peppers, and garnish with cilantro.
