Ingredients

1 pound hard chorizo diced
1 white onion diced
1/2 cup chopped carrot (1 large carrot)
1/2 cup chopped celery
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
2 cups crumbled corn bread
1/2 cup chicken stock
1/4 cup chopped cilantro

Directions

Cook the chorizo in a skillet over medium heat until the fat has been rendered, about 5 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Add the onion, carrots, celery, and garlic to the chorizo and cook until the vegetables have carmelized, about 10 minutes.

Add the crumbled corn bread, chicken stock, and cilantro. Make sure that the stuffing itself is not to dry but at the same time not to wet.

Place the stuffing into a buttered casserole and bake in the oven until heated through and lightly browned, about 20 minutes.

Dressing with a Kick
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My family was really impressed with this stuffing and it was so easy to make! The mild sweetness of the cornbread goes well... with the tangy chorizo. I also used the soft chorizo (couldn't find the hard) and drained the fat out first, before adding the veggies.Read more

Family Favorite

This recipie has become a Thanksgiving tradition for a few years now since I started serving fried turkey. The Stuffing is... perfectly paired with the turkey. I do use a soft chorizo though.Read more

Absolutely delicious!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My husband is 100% Portuguese. For our 1st Thanksgiving together, I cooked dinner for us and 28 of our close friends (as our... family all live hours away!). I made this stuffing the evening before to have it out of the way. Well, I had to make another pan, because my husband ate the entire pan! No kidding. It has the traditional flavors of Portuguese cooking, and is so delicious. Highly recommend this for a side dish any time of the year!Read more

Easy and VERY tasty!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I made this for Thanksgiving this year; the only substitution I made was that instead of chorizo, I used chicken apple... sausage. It was a delicious stuffing, and VERY easy to make. I'm not sure why it's rated as medium difficulty, but other than that, no complaints! This will become part of my regular repertoire... :-)Read more
