Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
Add the ground turkey and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon.
Add the diced onion and garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent.
Stir in the taco seasoning to coat the turkey mixture thoroughly.
Pour in the diced tomatoes, black beans, and chicken broth.

Lower the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream and sour cream until well combined.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Notes
Leftovers taste even better the next day as the flavors continue to meld. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. You can also freeze portions for up to 3 months; add the cream only after reheating to prevent separation.
