Method

Chili Preparation

  1. 1

    Sauté Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and garlic, cooking until onion is translucent.

  2. 2

    Add Remaining Vegetables

    Stir in bell pepper, carrot, and zucchini. Cook for about 5 minutes until they start to soften.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Add diced tomatoes, kidney beans, black beans, vegetable broth, chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Stir well.

  4. 4

    Simmer

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Rice Preparation

  1. 5

    Cook Rice

    In a separate pot, bring water and salt to a boil. Add rice, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until rice is cooked and water is absorbed.

Eggs and Pita Preparation

  1. 6

    Fry Eggs

    In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Crack eggs into the skillet and cook until the whites are set but yolks are still runny, about 3-4 minutes.

  2. 7

    Toast Pita Bread

    Meanwhile, toast the pita bread until golden and crispy.

Assembly

  1. 8

    Serve

    In a bowl, add a serving of rice topped with chili. Add a dollop of sour cream, place a sunny-side-up egg on top, and serve with toasted pita bread on the side.
