Heat olive oil in cast iron skillet and cook turkey on medium high until half cooked; approximately 10 minutes. Season turkey with salt and pepper after 5 minutes. Once most of the liquid has been released, set turkey aside and drain some of the liquid from the skillet.

Return turkey to skillet and combine with spices. Once incorporated, add cumin, turmeric, red chili, and ginger powders and combine. Add chicken stock, reduce heat to medium low, and cover; cook for at least 30 minutes.

Add tamarind concentrate and red pepper (to ensure that the tamarind is fully incorporated, stir continuously for 30 seconds). Cook for an additional 10 minutes, uncovered. The key here is to reduce the liquid - if any - so that the final consistency is not watery (most of the liquid will have to be reduced).
