FIREHOUSE CHILI AND CORNBREAD CASSEROLE



Firehouse Chili and Cornbread Casserole image

Everyone knows that firefighters make the best chili--many using a recipe very similar to this--and the only way I know how to make that chili even better is by topping it with a cheesy cornbread crust. The cornbread crust is relatively sweet, which of course pairs perfectly with that spicy, meaty, savory chili.

Time 2h

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 yellow onion, diced
2 teaspoons kosher salt, or more to taste
2 pounds ground beef
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
½ cup diced poblano pepper
3 cloves garlic, crushed
3 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon dried oregano
1 (15 ounce) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes
1 (15 ounce) can fire-roasted crushed tomatoes

1 cup grated white Cheddar cheese, divided
2 large eggs
1 cup milk
¼ cup sour cream, or to taste
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro, or to taste

Steps:
