Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 Tbsp canola or other light oil
1 stalk(s) celery, diced fine
1/2 medium red or green bell pepper, diced fine
3/4 c frozen corn niblets, thawed
4 to 6 medium hot dogs
3 oz cheddar cheese, 1/4" dice
CORN BREAD BATTER - DRY INGREDIENTS
1/2 c all purpose flour
1/2 c corn meal
2 Tbsp sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp sage, rubbed or ground (optional)
1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp buttermilk powder (optional)
1/8 tsp baking soda (only if using buttermilk powder)
CORN BREAD BATTER - WET INGREDIENTS
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/2 c milk, plus 2 tablespoons, if needed
2 Tbsp butter, melted

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 400F.
  • 2. Heat a 10" cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add the oil. When it shimmers, add the diced celery and pepper and saute until the vegetables are soft and translucent, about 10 minutes.
  • 3. While the vegetables are cooking, prepare the batter. Combine the dry ingredients in a medium bowl. Whisk 1/2 cup milk and the egg in a small bowl. Slowly whisk the melted butter into the milk and egg. Pour the wet ingredients onto the dry ingredients. Stir briefly, until no ingredients remain dry. The resulting batter will be lumpy and should resemble a thick pancake batter. If the batter is thick like a muffin batter, add the remaining milk and stir briefly. Set the batter aside.
  • 4. Remove the vegetables from the skillet with a slotted spoon, leaving as much oil as possible in the skillet. Turn the heat up to medium-high and brown the hot dogs on all sides to add a roasted flavor.
  • 5. Remove the skillet from the heat. Brush the oil under the hot dogs on the walls of the skillet to prevent sticking. Evenly space the hot dogs. Add the celery, peppers and corn, forming an even layer around the hot dogs.
  • 6. Pour the batter over the hot dogs and vegetables. Spread the dough to reach the walls of the skillet. Distribute the diced cheese over the batter.
  • 7. Place the skillet in the center of the hot oven and bake 20 minutes until the cheese is well melted and the top is golden.
  • 8. Allow to rest 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • Use fresh or frozen corn. Fresh corn is best, but frozen corn works well too. Just be sure to thaw it before using.
  • Don't overcook the corn. It should be tender but still have a little bit of a bite to it.
  • Use a variety of cheeses. Cheddar, Parmesan, and Monterey Jack are all good choices. You can also use a blend of cheeses.
  • Add some spices and herbs. Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder are all good choices. You can also add fresh herbs, such as basil, thyme, or rosemary.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment. There are many different ways to make skillet corn casserole. Feel free to add or omit ingredients to suit your taste.

Conclusion:

Skillet corn casserole is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's perfect for potlucks, picnics, and family gatherings.
