Chorizo Kale And Cornbread Stuffing Recipes

CORNBREAD AND CHORIZO STUFFING

Steps:

• Make the cornbread: Preheat the oven to 425˚ F and oil a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder and fine salt in a large bowl. Stir in the eggs, milk and vegetable oil until combined. Pour the batter into the pan and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool, then cut into 1- to 2-inch cubes. Spread out on a baking sheet and let dry out at room temperature overnight.
• Make the stuffing: Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 6 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl with a slotted spoon. Add the onion, celery, bell pepper and poblano to the skillet and cook, stirring, until tender, about 8 minutes. Add the garlic, chili powder, sage, oregano and 1 teaspoon each kosher salt and pepper and cook, stirring, 2 more minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
• Preheat the oven to 350˚ F and butter a 9-by-13-inch or other 3-quart baking dish. Whisk the eggs and 4 cups chicken broth in a large bowl. Add the cubed cornbread (about 12 cups) and the cooled chorizo mixture and toss to coat. (If the cornbread seems dry, add up to 1 more cup broth.) Transfer to the baking dish, dot with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and cover loosely with foil. Bake 30 minutes, then uncover, top with the pepitas and continue baking, uncovered, until the top is golden and crisp, 30 to 35 more minutes. Top with cilantro before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat and cook the chorizo, breaking it up with a spoon and stirring occasionally as it cooks, until it begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the onion, carrot, celery and garlic to the chorizo and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables have browned, about 10 minutes. Add the crumbled cornbread and cilantro and gradually pour in enough of the stock so the stuffing is not too dry but at the same time not too wet. Stir gently and well.
• Butter a small casserole dish. Spread the stuffing in an even layer. Bake until it's heated through and lightly browned on top, about 20 minutes. Serve right away, garnished with the cilantro and cotija, if desired.

SPICY CORNBREAD STUFFING WITH CHORIZO AND SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Place racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 350°F. Divide cornbread between 2 large rimmed baking sheets. Bake, tossing occasionally and rotating pans top to bottom halfway through, until beginning to brown in spots and dry out, 35-40 minutes. (Drying out the stuffing will help it absorb the eggs and stock without becoming mushy.) Let cool.
• Meanwhile, cook sweet potatoes in a large pot of boiling salted water until just beginning to soften but not fully cooked through, 7-9 minutes. Drain; transfer potatoes to a large bowl.
• Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Cook chorizo, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until lightly browned and slightly undercooked, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to bowl with sweet potatoes.
• Heat remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in same skillet over medium. Add onions, celery, chiles (if using), garlic, paprika, 1 Tbsp. salt, and 1 tsp. pepper and cook, stirring often, until vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes. Add kale in batches as it wilts, then cider and sage and cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid is almost completely evaporated, about 5 minutes. Transfer to sweet potato mixture and toss to combine.
• Whisk eggs, stock, and vinegar in a large bowl or pitcher; season with remaining 1 Tbsp. salt and 2 tsp. pepper.
• Brush large roasting pan with an even layer of melted butter. Spread one-third of cornbread pieces in pan. Top with half of sweet potato mixture and spread to evenly distribute. Drizzle one-third of egg mixture over. Repeat with another third of the cornbread, remaining sweet potato mixture, then another third of egg mixture. There will be a lot of liquid in the pan-don't worry, it will become absorbed as the stuffing bakes. Top with remaining cornbread, then drizzle remaining egg mixture over. Brush top with remaining butter. Cover pan with foil and bake stuffing until heated through, about 45 minutes. Uncover and bake until surface is golden and crisp, 20-30 minutes longer.
• Do Ahead: Cornbread can be toasted 1 day ahead; store tightly wrapped at room temperature. Sweet potato, chorizo, and kale mixture can be cooked 1 day ahead; cover and chill.
