Cornbread And Chorizo Stuffing
- 4 ears of corn, husked
- 1/2 pound chorizo, peeled and thickly sliced
- 1 1/2 sticks (6 ounces) unsalted butter, 1 stick melted
- 1 sweet onion, minced (2 cups)
- 3 celery ribs, finely diced (1 1/2 cups)
- 3 large garlic cloves, minced
- 2 large poblano chiles or 3 large jalapenos, seeded and finely diced
- 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped thyme
- Crispy Skillet Corn Bread, coarsely crumbled (13 cups)
- 2 cups Rich Turkey Stock or low-sodium chicken broth
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- Preheat the broiler and position a rack 8 inches from the heat. Broil the corn, turning, until lightly charred, about 7 minutes. Let cool slightly, then cut the kernels from the cobs.
- In a food processor, chop the chorizo into 1/2-inch pieces. In a large skillet, cook the chorizo over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until the fat is rendered, about 5 minutes. Drain the chorizo and transfer to a paper towel-lined plate; discard the fat.
- Wipe out the skillet and melt the 4 tablespoons of solid butter in it. Add the onion, celery, garlic, poblanos and thyme and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 10 minutes. Scrape into a large bowl. Add the chorizo, corn kernels, corn bread, melted butter and stock. Season with salt and pepper and stir well. Let cool.
- Bake the stuffing at 375 in the baking dish for about 30 minutes, or until heated through and crisp on top.
