Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Begin by placing 4 strips of center-cut bacon in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Sauté the bacon for about 6-8 minutes until it turns crispy and golden brown, then transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain, leaving the drippings in the pot.
- In the same pot with the bacon fat, add 1 chopped white onion and 1 diced poblano pepper. Sauté for about 3 minutes until softened, then add 2 minced garlic cloves and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Add 1 pound of turkey breakfast sausage to the pot, breaking it apart. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently until browned and cooked through.
- Stir in 1 can of fire-roasted crushed tomatoes and 2 cups of beef broth, along with the bacon. Season with chili seasoning to taste; bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 45-60 minutes.
- While the chili simmers, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Crack in 4 eggs, cooking sunny-side up for about 3-4 minutes.
- Once the chili is done, ladle it into bowls. Top each serving with a pan-fried egg, and if desired, sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese, diced avocado, and fresh pico de gallo.

Notes
Leftovers taste even better the next day. Allow your Breakfast Chili to cool completely before refrigerating.
