Zesty Cheddar And Green Chili Cornbread Recipes

Steps:

• Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Generously coat a 9-inch square baking dish or 9-inch cast-iron skillet with cooking spray. Whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl.
• Whisk together the milk, sour cream, butter and egg in a medium bowl. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and whisk to combine. Fold in the onions, green chiles and cheese.
• Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake until the cornbread springs back when pressed in the center, 25 to 35 minutes. Let cool in the baking dish for about 15 minutes. Loosen the edges, then slice into wedges or squares and serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Mix the cornbread batter according to the recipe on the box. Stir in the green chiles and half of the Cheddar. Pour the cornbread mixture into a greased baking dish or Dutch oven and bake the cornbread according to package directions until golden brown. Remove from the oven and sprinkle immediately with the remaining Cheddar. Let rest 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine cornbread mix, egg and butter. Stir in the corn, chilies, cheese and hot pepper sauce. , Pour into a greased 11x7-in. baking dish. Bake at 400° for 20-22 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. , In a small bowl, combine butter and honey. Serve with warm bread.

Steps:

• Stir together well flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
• Beat eggs, buttermilk, oil together until well mixed.
• Add shredded cheddar and chilies to flour mixture and stir.
• Add wet ingredients to dry and stir until just mixed. Do not overmix as this will make tough cornbread.
• I use a 9x9x2 in pan and bake for 27-35 minutes at 400°F, depending on your oven.
• As another variation I like to add a half cup or so of roasted corn (drained) and cut back on the amount of chilies and cheese.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine corn, cream cheese and green chiles.
• Heat over medium high heat until the cream cheese is melted and smooth.
• Add shredded Cheddar cheese and seasonings; heat until cheese is melted.
• Pour into greased casserole dish and top with additional Cheddar cheese, as much as you like.
• Bake in a preheated 350-degree oven until cheese is melted and bubbling, about 25 minutes.
• NOTE: I drained one can of corn and did not drain the other can.
• You may prefer to drain both cans if you want less sauce.

Steps:

• Char chilies over gas flame or in broiler until blackened on all sides. Enclose in paper bag; let stand 10 minutes. Peel, seed and chop chilies.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Butter 9 x 5 x 2 3/4-inch metal loaf pan. Whisk cornmeal and next 5 ingredients in medium bowl to blend. Stir in cheese. Whisk buttermilk, eggs and butter in another medium bowl to blend. Add egg mixture to dry ingredients and stir just until blended. Mix in chilies. Transfer batter to prepared pan.
• Bake bread until deep golden brown on top and tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Cool in pan on rack 10 minutes. Turn bread out onto rack and cool completely. (Can be prepared 2 weeks ahead. Wrap in foil; freeze. Unwrap and thaw at room temperature.)

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Grease bottom only of 8x4- or 9x5-inch loaf pan with shortening or cooking spray.
• In large bowl, stir buttermilk, butter, sugar, chiles and eggs until well mixed. Stir in remaining ingredients just until moistened. Spread in pan.
• Bake 8-inch pan 45 to 55 minutes, 9-inch pan 40 to 50 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean (do not underbake). Cool in pan on cooling rack 15 minutes. Loosen sides of loaf from pan; remove from pan and place top side up on cooling rack. Serve warm, if desired.
