Katie Lees Cornbread Stuffing Recipe 45

Steps:

• Make the herb butter: Mix the butter with the sage, thyme, parsley, rosemary, tablespoons salt and 2 teaspoons pepper in a small bowl until well combined. Make the stuffing: Melt 1/2 cup of the herb butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and celery and saute, stirring occasionally, until translucent, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool. Preheat the oven to 375 degree F. Combine the cooked onions and celery with the cornbread, egg, chicken broth, milk and 3/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a large bowl; mix well. Place in a buttered 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Cover with foil and bake 30 minutes; remove the foil and bake until golden brown, about 20 more minutes.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook, using a wooden spoon to break it up, until browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the sausage to a medium bowl, leaving the sausage fat in the skillet. Add the mushrooms, celery and onions to the skillet and saute, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in the sage and cook 2 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Turn off the heat. Place the cubed cornbread in a large bowl and add the sauteed vegetables and sausage and stir to combine. Set to the side and let cool slightly. Whisk the chicken broth, milk, egg, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Pour over the cornbread mixture and gently stir to coat. (If not baking right away, refrigerate until ready to bake.)
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Transfer the stuffing mixture to a greased 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Bake until golden brown, 30 to 40 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray and place in the oven while you make the batter.
• In a large bowl, combine the cornmeal, baking powder, sugar, red pepper flakes and salt. Stir to combine. Add the milk, oil and corn and stir until just combined. Stir in the Cheddar, onions and green peppers and stir just until incorporated.
• Carefully remove the hot muffin tin from the oven and ladle the batter into it. Return to the oven and bake until a toothpick comes out clean, about 15 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes. Remove from the muffin tin and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Pour the oil into a 10-inch cast-iron skillet and place in the oven to heat while the oven is preheating.
• In a medium bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. In a separate bowl, combine the eggs, buttermilk and butter. Add the liquid to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
• Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven and pour the batter into it. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until golden brown. Serve warm.

Steps:

• In a medium skillet over medium-low heat, melt the butter. Cook, undisturbed, until the foam subsides and the butter is a deep brown and smells nutty. Transfer immediately to a heatproof liquid measuring cup or bowl.
• In a large bowl, combine the cornbread, scallions, 3 tablespoons butter, eggs, sage, salt, chili powder and black pepper. If the mixture looks dry, add a little stock or water.
• Spoon the stuffing into a 1 1/2 quart gratin dish. Drizzle the remaining butter over the stuffing. (At this point you can wrap well with plastic wrap and refrigerate it overnight.)
• Heat oven to 350 degrees and bake until crisp and browned on top, about 30 to 45 minutes.
