Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground turkey, salt, pepper, chopped onion, and minced garlic; sauté until the turkey is fully browned.

Transfer browned turkey mixture to a Dutch oven or large pot. In the same skillet, sauté sliced carrots and celery until just tender, then add to the Dutch oven.

Add diced tomatoes (with juices) to the skillet to deglaze, scraping up browned bits. Stir in beef broth, tomato paste, basil, oregano, thyme, and chili flakes; bring to a boil.

Pour the mixture from the skillet into the Dutch oven. Stir to combine all ingredients thoroughly and simmer on low heat for 30 to 40 minutes to meld flavors.

Add chopped fresh parsley during the last 5 to 10 minutes of cooking to preserve its brightness and flavor.
