In skillet or wok over high heat, pour enough oil to coat bottom; add white and light green parts of green onions, peppers, garlic and ginger and stir-fry until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add turkey, breaking up with back of spoon or spatula; stir-fry until turkey is no longer pink inside and liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Stir in hoisin sauce, chili bean paste (if using) and five-spice powder; stir-fry for 2 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, soy sauce and 1 cup/250 mL water.
Cover and reduce heat; simmer, stirring occasionally, until sauce is thickened and turkey is tender, about 20 minutes. Stir in dark green parts of green onions.
