JALAPENO-BACON STUFFING



Jalapeno-Bacon Stuffing image

This is a side dish that goes great with turkey and is 100 times better than a "stovetop stuffing." If you take it to a potluck dinner you will be forever doomed to repeat the same dish forever...they demand it year after year. The jalapenos are the key; I chop them very fine. I have used up to 6 tablespoons, but 4 seems about perfect.

Time 1h25m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 (8.5 ounce) packages cornbread mix
1 ½ cups milk, divided
3 eggs
6 slices bacon
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped green bell pepper
1 cup chopped celery
1 stick butter, divided
1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
1 (15 ounce) can cream-style corn
4 tablespoons finely chopped jalapeno pepper, or to taste
2 tablespoons chopped pimento peppers
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sliced jalapeno pepper, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch pan.
  • Combine cornbread mix, 1 cup milk, and eggs in a bowl. Mix until well blended; batter will be lumpy. Pour into the prepared pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove and let cool enough to handle, 15 to 30 minutes. Crumble and set aside in a bowl.
  • Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels, reserve 2 tablespoons grease in the pan. Let bacon cool slightly, about 5 minutes; crumble and set aside.
  • Heat reserved bacon grease over medium-high heat. Cook onion, bell pepper, and celery in the hot grease until soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Set aside.
  • Melt 6 tablespoons butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add corn, cream-style corn, remaining milk, chopped jalapenos, pimentos, sugar, and salt. Cook until heated through, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in bacon and sauteed vegetables. Stir in 2 cups crumbled cornbread. Transfer mixture to a baking dish.
  • Melt remaining butter and stir into remaining 1/2 cup crumbled cornbread; sprinkle over stuffing mixture.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until crumbs are light brown, about 10 minutes. Garnish with sliced jalapenos.

SOUTHWESTERN CORNBREAD STUFFING (DRESSING)



Southwestern Cornbread Stuffing (Dressing) image

Over the years I've developed my own version of cornbread dressing. We like it spicey but you can control the 'heat' by omitting the jalapenos. In a pinch I've even made with a small can of diced mild green chiles. This is a very forgiving dish so feel free to experiment . . . add some corn, etc.

  • Don't overcook the cornbread. Overcooked cornbread will be dry and crumbly. Cook it just until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Use a good quality broth. The broth you use will make a big difference in the flavor of your dressing. Use a broth that you like the taste of, such as chicken broth, vegetable broth, or beef broth.
  • Add some herbs and spices. Herbs and spices can help to enhance the flavor of your dressing. Some good options include sage, thyme, rosemary, and black pepper.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment. There are many different ways to make cornbread dressing. Feel free to experiment with different ingredients and flavors until you find a recipe that you love.
