Method

Chili Base Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Beef

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat.

  2. 2

    Add Vegetables

    Add diced onion, garlic, and bell pepper to the beef. Sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Stir in canned diced tomatoes, kidney beans, chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer and let cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Rice Preparation

  1. 4

    Cook the Rice

    In a medium saucepan, combine jasmine rice and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-18 minutes or until rice is tender. Remove from heat and let sit, covered, for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.

Egg Preparation

  1. 5

    Fry the Eggs

    In a non-stick skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Crack eggs into the skillet, season with salt and black pepper, and cook until whites are set and yolks are cooked to your preference, about 4-6 minutes.

Assembling the Dish

  1. 6

    Layer the Ingredients

    In serving bowls, place a scoop of rice at the bottom, followed by a generous serving of the chili base. Top with a fried egg.

  2. 7

    Garnish

    Sprinkle chopped green onions and shredded cheddar cheese on top of each bowl before serving.
