Brown the corned beef and vegetables - Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the corned beef, onion, and bell pepper. Cook, stirring often and breaking up beef with a wooden spoon, until the corned beef is browned and the vegetables soften, about 10 minutes.

Build the casserole - Spread the corned beef mixture in the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the corned beef. Top with the potato tots in an even layer. Whisk the eggs, milk, black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt in a large bowl until well combined; pour over the potato tots. Mix the smoked paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl until combined. Sprinkle evenly over potato tots.
