Stuffed Tomatoes With Chorizo And Cornbread

• 1 cup yellow cornmeal
• 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
• 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 large eggs
• 3/4 cup buttermilk
• 4 teaspoons canola oil
• 6 large tomatoes
• 1-1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
• 5 ounces uncooked chorizo or bulk Italian sausage
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 1 medium sweet orange or red pepper, finely chopped
• 1/3 cup minced fresh cilantro
• 3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
• 3 large eggs, lightly beaten

1. In a large bowl, combine the cornmeal, salt, baking powder and baking soda. In another bowl, whisk eggs and buttermilk.
2. Place oil in an 8-in. ovenproof skillet; heat skillet in a 450u0b0 oven for 3 minutes. Meanwhile, stir egg mixture into dry ingredients just until moistened.
3. Carefully swirl the oil in the skillet to coat the sides and bottom of pan; add batter. Bake at 450u0b0 for 12-16 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely.
4. Place cornbread into a food processor; cover and process until coarse crumbs form. Set aside.
5. Cut a 1/4-in. slice off the top of each tomato; with a spoon or melon baller, hollow out each tomato, leaving a 1/2-in. shell. Discard pulp. Sprinkle salt into each tomato; place upside down on paper towel for 10 minutes to drain.
6. Crumble chorizo into a large skillet; add onion and pepper. Cook over medium heat for 6-8 minutes or until meat is fully cooked; drain. Cool slightly.
7. In a large bowl, combine the cornbread crumbs, chorizo mixture, cilantro and cumin; stir in eggs. Place tomatoes in an greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Spoon cornbread mixture into each tomato, mounding in the center.
8. Bake, uncovered, at 350u0b0 for 20-25 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean and the tops are golden brown.
