Ingredients
  

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 medium onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 green bell pepper, diced

1 pound ground turkey or beef

1 teaspoon chili powder

1 teaspoon cumin

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes (with juices)

1 can (15 oz) kidney beans, drained and rinsed

1 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

4 large eggs

Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Avocado slices (for topping)

Optional: shredded cheese and hot sauce (for serving)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

    Add the Peppers: Incorporate the diced red and green bell peppers into the skillet. Sauté for about 5 minutes, until they soften.

      Cook the Meat: Add the ground turkey or beef to the skillet. Break it up with a spoon and cook until browned and fully cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.

        Spice it Up: Stir in the chili powder, cumin, and smoked paprika, evenly mixing the spices with the meat and vegetables. Cook for another 2 minutes to toast the spices.

          Combine Ingredients: Pour in the diced tomatoes (with their juices) and kidney beans; stir well. Season with salt to taste. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

            Prepare the Eggs: In a separate non-stick skillet, fry the eggs to your liking (sunny-side up or over easy are great options).

              Serve Up: Once the chili is ready, divide it among bowls. Top each serving with a fried egg, garnish with fresh cilantro, and add slices of avocado. If desired, sprinkle with shredded cheese and a dash of hot sauce for extra flavor.

                Enjoy: Dig in and savor the hearty, spicy breakfast chili paired with luscious eggs!
