In skillet, heat oil over medium heat; cook onion, stirring often, until softened and light golden, about 8 minutes. Stir in garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, pepper and cayenne pepper; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds.Stir in turkey; cook, breaking up with spoon, until no liquid remains and turkey is no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Stir in strained tomatoes, red pepper and half of the green onions; cook until heated through and thickened, about 5 minutes.
Layer chips and turkey mixture in lightly greased 13- x 9-inch (3L) baking dish; sprinkle with cheese. Broil until cheese is melted and tips of chips are lightly charred, 60 to 90 seconds. Top with remaining green onions, cilantro and lime juice.
