In a small saucepan, 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 cooks, heat the canola oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey, cumin, garlic powder, black pepper, and the remaining salt. Cook, breaking the meat into small crumbles, for 8 to 10 minutes until opaque and cooked through. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
Fluff the rested rice with a fork. Stir in the black beans, lime juice, and cilantro until well combined and the beans are warmed through.
Spoon the cilantro lime black bean rice onto the plate and top with the seared ground turkey.
