How to Make 20 Minute Egg Drop Chili

  1. Heat olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat.
  2. Add minced garlic and chopped onion; sauté for 3-5 minutes, until softened and fragrant.
  3. Stir in kidney beans (or pinto beans), diced tomatoes (undrained), chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
  4. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 5-7 minutes.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk eggs lightly until yolks and whites are just combined.
