Delicious Chorizo Cornbread Stuffing Recipe for Thanksgiving

Ingredients

Servings:
3
  • 1 cup chorizo sausage, crumbled
  • 4 cups cornbread, crumbled (preferably day-old)
  • 1 cup celery, diced
  • 1 cup onion, diced
  • 1 cup chicken broth (or vegetable broth for a vegetarian option)
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    This ensures even cooking.
  2. Cook the Chorizo

    In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the crumbled chorizo until browned and cooked through.

    Stir frequently to avoid burning.
  3. Sauté the Vegetables

    Add diced celery and onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.

    Add a pinch of salt to help the vegetables release moisture.
  4. Combine Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the cooked chorizo mixture, crumbled cornbread, chicken broth, beaten eggs, parsley, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt.

    Mix well until everything is evenly combined.
  5. Bake the Stuffing

    Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish and bake for 30-35 minutes until the top is golden brown.

    Cover with foil if browning too quickly.
