Yield Makes 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound andouille sausage links, quartered lengthwise, then cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick pieces (about 3 cups)
8 cups chopped onions (about 2 3/4 pounds), divided
5 cups chopped celery (about 10 stalks with leaves), divided
3 cups mixed chopped red, yellow, and/or green bell peppers, divided
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 large eggs
1/2 cup (or more) low-salt chicken broth
Green Onion-Jalapeño Cornbread
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, melted

Steps:

  • Heat oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add sausage and sauté until browned, about 6 minutes. Add 6 cups onions, 4 cups celery, and 2 cups bell peppers; sauté until vegetables are brown, about 20 minutes. Add remaining onions, celery, and bell peppers, then thyme and cayenne; sauté until vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cool slightly. Cover and chill.)
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 15x10x2-inch glass baking dish. Whisk eggs and 1/2 cup broth in medium bowl. Crumble cornbread into very large bowl. Add vegetable and egg-broth mixtures; toss. Mix in more broth by 1/4 cupfuls if dressing is dry. Transfer dressing to prepared dish. Drizzle with butter.
  • Bake dressing uncovered until golden brown and slightly crisp on top, about 45 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh, flavorful cornbread is a must. You can use your favorite cornbread recipe or a store-bought mix. Just be sure to use a good-quality, flavorful andouille sausage. Smoked sausage or kielbasa can be used as well.
  • Don't overstuff the cornbread. You want the stuffing to be moist and fluffy, not dense and heavy. Aim to stuff the cornbread cups about 2/3 full.
  • Bake the cornbread stuffing until it is golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the cornbread stuffing hot, with your favorite gravy or sauce.

Conclusion:

Andouille cornbread stuffing is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a holiday meal or a casual dinner. With its smoky, spicy flavor and moist, fluffy texture, this stuffing is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
