Combine tomatoes, bell peppers, cilantro, vinegar and jalapeno peppers in small bowl; cover. Refrigerate at least 2 hours to allow flavors to blend.
Place turkey in shallow dish while marinating vegetables. Mix lime juice, tequila, oil and black pepper until well blended; pour over turkey. Turn turkey to evenly coat both sides; cover. Refrigerate 15 minutes or for no more than 2 hours to marinate, turning turkey occasionally. Drain turkey; discard marinade.
