There is nothing more satisfying than a hearty hot breakfast like this easy Turkey Chili Shakshuka recipe. It is warm and full of delicious ground turkey to keep you full all morning.

When Foster Farms asked me to create a recipe around their organic ground turkey, I was excited. I use Foster Farms Organic chicken and turkey in almost all of my cooking. You can feel good about using their meats knowing that they are better for us.
High Protein Breakfast
Today I wanted to create a fun twist on a shakshuka. This chili has just enough spice and flavors to blend in with the eggs and cheese to make the perfect breakfast! This high protein breakfast is ready in just 30 minutes.
I loved using their organic chicken in this Gluten Free Curried Chicken Pot Pie recipe that I created for them!
One Recipe Two Different Meals
One thing I love about this recipe is that it can do double duty. You can make a big pot of chili for one meal, then use the leftover chili to make this delicious breakfast shakshuka.
Ground turkey is healthier, leaner, and much lower calorie than ground beef. Using ground turkey instead of ground beef means my chili isn’t greasy! That is a win-win when you have picky eaters!
This easy shakshuka recipe is full of protein from the ground turkey and healthy beans!

How to Make Shakshuka
Are you ready to see how easy this easy shakshuka with meat recipe is to make?
The first step is to cook the ground turkey with a little olive oil, onion, and garlic.
Add in tomatoes, beans, spices, green chilis, and cilantro and simmer.
Continue to simmer. See all of the ground turkey in this chili? I love how hearty it turns out!
Add the eggs and continue to simmer. When the eggs are partially cooked, I pop the cast iron skillet under a broiler for 5 minutes. After 2 1/2 minutes, I remove it to add some grated cheddar cheese.
Serve hot with sour cream, chopped cilantro, and scallions.

I’m making this tonight as it looks delicious + easy. Am I missin something though? I got all of the ingredients today at the store. I’m reading the recipe now before I prep dinner and no where in the ingredient list does it mention green chilies. Also in the directions it doesn’t mention when to add the orange pepper. Just a little confused. I hope with the list leaving out green chilies doesn’t alter the taste of the dish too much. Thank you! Not sure how to rate this so I will change upon response.

Hi Amber, I add the peppers and green chiles with the onion and turkey while cooking. I will clarify in the recipe. Thanks for pointing this out!!

I use ground turkey more often than ground beef and I always look for organic, but I don’t think I’ve seen Foster Farms in my area of South Florida. Do they distribute there? Now about this shakshuka — simply stunning — and you’re planner like me — making chili one night and repurposing it for breakfast the next day. I love these kind of recipes that do double duty!
