Creamy Ground Turkey Soup is a simple, nutritious, easy soup that's full of flavor and a great dinner for the fall or winter. It's light and healthy, and it can even be frozen for lunch later!
In a large Dutch oven or skillet, heat olive oil until shimmering over medium-high heat. Sauté onion, carrots, celery, and bell pepper until softened (about 8 minutes). Add garlic and cook until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
Add in the ground turkey, using a wooden spoon to break meat into smaller pieces. Cook until the turkey is browned (about 8 minutes).
Sprinkle on the oregano leaves, Kosher salt, pepper, thyme, and bay leaves.
Pour in the chicken stock, cover, and bring to a boil. Once the soup is boiling, scoop out about 1 cup of cooking liquid with a large measuring cup. Whisk in the 2 tbs. of cornstarch until no lumps remain.
Return cornstarch slurry mixture to the soup, stir, and simmer an additional 10 minutes.
Turn heat off, pour in heavy cream and sprinkle on Parmesan cheese. Stir until cheese is melted.
