Categories     side-dish

Time 1h35m

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

Butter, for the baking dish
12 large eggs
2 cups whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 pounds cornbread (store-bought or homemade), cut into 1- to 1 1/2-inch cubes and dried overnight (about 8 heaping cups)
1 tablespoon canola oil
8 ounces fresh chorizo or turkey sausage, casings removed
1 medium red onion, halved and thinly sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 poblano chile, thinly sliced
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves, plus whole leaves for garnish
1 cup grated sharp white Cheddar
1 cup grated Monterey Jack cheese
4 ounces goat cheese, cut into small pieces
1/4 cup crumbled cotija cheese
Creamy Spicy Tomato Sauce:
2 tablespoons olive or canola oil
1 small Spanish onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
8 plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped
2 teaspoons chipotles in adobo puree
2 tablespoons Mexican crema, creme fraiche or sour cream
Juice of 1/2 lime

Steps:

  • For the Southwestern cornbread strata: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 10-by-12-inch baking dish and place on a baking sheet. Set aside.
  • Whisk together the eggs, milk, cream and salt and pepper in a large bowl. Add the cornbread, press to submerge, and let stand, stirring once or twice to soak the cornbread evenly and thoroughly.
  • Heat the oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat, add the sausage, and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Add the onion, bell pepper and poblano to the drippings in the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned in spots and soft, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir the sausage and onion mixture into the cornbread mixture. Stir in the chopped cilantro, 3/4 cup of the Cheddar and 3/4 cup of the Monterey Jack. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture to the prepared dish, dot with the goat cheese and sprinkle on the cotija and remaining 1/4 cups Cheddar and Monterey Jack. Bake until the edges are puffed and lightly golden brown and the center still jiggles slightly, about 40 minutes.
  • For the tomato sauce: While the strata bakes, heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
  • Stir in the tomatoes and chipotle and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is reduced by half and thickened, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a blender and puree until creamy, venting the top of the blender to allow steam to escape. Return the sauce to the saucepan over low heat, and whisk in the crema and salt and pepper to taste; let the sauce heat through and then remove from the heat. Stir in the lime juice and cover to keep warm.
  • Let the strata rest for about 10 minutes, then serve with the creamy spicy tomato sauce, garnishing each serving with some of the whole cilantro leaves.

CREAMY POBLANO CHICKEN WITH CORNBREAD WAFFLES



Creamy Poblano Chicken With Cornbread Waffles image

I had this at a dinner party, and it is sooooo delicious! Creamy chicken with just a bit of heat, served atop crunchy cornbread waffles. Comfort Food! If your chicken breasts are on the large side, 6 will work nicely. This can be made ahead, simply reheat the chicken mixture and warm the waffles!

Time 50m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

3 tablespoons butter or 3 tablespoons margarine
1 large onion, diced
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 poblano chiles, seeded & diced
6 -8 boneless chicken breast halves, cut into bite-size pieces
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
8 ounces sour cream
8 ounces shredded sharp cheddar cheese
cornbread waffle
1 1/2 cups cornmeal
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
1 large egg
1 1/2 cups milk
1/4 cup melted butter or 1/4 cup margarine
1 1/2 cups frozen white shoepeg corn, thawed

Steps:

  • In Dutch oven, melf butter over medium heat. Add onions, poblanos, & garlic. Saute for 5 minutes, or until soft. Add chicken, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring often, 8-10 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. Stir in soup and sour cream until smooth. Stir in cheese, cook & stir until melted and smooth. Serve over Cornbread Waffles.
  • To prepare waffles, Combine cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large mixing bowl. Stir in egg, milk, and melted butter, stirring just until just moistened. Batter will be somewhat lumpy.
  • Bake batter in a lightly buttered, preheated waffle iron until golden brown & crispy.

Tips:

  • Fresh Corn is Best: If you have access to fresh corn, use it for the best flavor. Fresh corn is sweeter and has a better texture than frozen or canned corn.
  • Don't Overmix: Overmixing the batter will make the cornbread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a Hot Skillet: A hot skillet will help the cornbread cook evenly and prevent it from sticking.
  • Don't Crowd the Skillet: Don't overcrowd the skillet with batter. This will prevent the cornbread from cooking evenly.
  • Cook Until Golden Brown: Cook the cornbread until it is golden brown on both sides. This ensures that it is cooked through.
  • Serve Warm: Cornbread is best served warm. You can reheat it in the oven or microwave if necessary.

Conclusion:

Creamy cornbread is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like it sweet or savory, there is a creamy cornbread recipe out there for you.
