Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and cook the chorizo, breaking it up with a spoon and stirring occasionally as it cooks, until it begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, carrots, celery and onions to the chorizo and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables have browned, about 10 minutes. Add the crumbled cornbread and cilantro. Gradually stir in enough of the stock so the stuffing is not too dry but at the same time not too wet. Stir gently and well.
- Butter a small casserole dish. Spread the stuffing in an even layer. Bake until it's heated through and lightly browned on top, about 20 minutes. Serve right away, garnished with cilantro and cotija if desired.
- Bring 1 cup water to a boil in a small saucepan. Put the chile powder in a small bowl, pour in the boiling water and stir well to make a paste. Let it cool to room temperature.
- Put the ground beef and pork in a large bowl. Add the vinegar, salt and garlic and mix well (your hands are the best tools for this job). Sprinkle with the oregano, canela, black pepper, star anise and cloves and mix well. Add the wine and sugar and mix well. Work the ancho chilie paste into the meat with your fingers until it's well incorporated. Cover and refrigerate overnight before you use it.
- Store in 2-ounce portions in ziptop bags in the refrigerator for up to a week, or freeze for up to 3 months.

ADOBO RUBBED THANKSGIVING TURKEY
This is the way turkey is prepared in Puerto Rico, where it is seasoned the same way a pork shoulder is. It is called "pavochon", which translates literally as "turkeypork", due to its distinctive flavor. It is also served during the Holidays as an alternative to pork.

Absolutely delicious. The fresh corn bread adds so much flavor! Use bacon or ground pork. You can add whatever you like, but this is the way i always make mine. I often add or change things. Enjoy.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a pie pan.
- In a bowl, mix cornmeal and water and allow to stand for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk the whole wheat flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl. Whisk the egg and vegetable oil into the wet cornmeal; stir the wet ingredients into the flour mixture until just combined and pour into the prepared pie pan.
- Bake the cornbread in the preheated oven until lightly browned and a knife inserted into the center of the cornbread comes out clean, 20 to 30 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside to cool.
- Reduce oven heat to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
- Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until browned and crisp, about 6 minutes per side; drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Crumble the bacon when cool. Stir the onion, garlic, celery, red bell pepper, poultry seasoning, sage, and oregano into the bacon drippings left in the skillet; cook and stir until the onion is translucent, about 10 minutes.
- Remove cooled cornbread from the pie pan and cut into small cubes; place into a large bowl and mix in the rye bread cubes. Stir the bacon and cooked vegetables into the stuffing until well combined; drizzle the chicken broth into the dressing, stirring to evenly moisten the bread cubes.
- Rinse the turkey inside and out and pat dry with paper towels. Place turkey into a large roasting pan with a lid. Fill the body and neck cavities loosely with stuffing, folding the neck skin over the stuffing and securing in place with toothpicks. Place any leftover stuffing onto a large square of aluminum foil and fold and seal the edges to enclose the stuffing. Refrigerate stuffing packet until about 45 minutes before serving time.
- Place the turkey in the oven, and roast until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh reads 180 degrees F (80 degrees C), 3 1/2 to 4 hours. Remove lid after about 2 1/2 hours to brown skin. Baste occasionally with pan drippings. About 45 minutes before serving, bake the extra stuffing if desired.

Tips:
- To achieve crispy skin on the turkey breast, ensure the skin is completely dry before seasoning and roasting.
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the turkey breast. It should reach 165°F (74°C) before removing it from the oven.
- Allow the turkey breast to rest for at least 10 minutes before carving to allow the juices to redistribute.
- For the chorizo cornbread stuffing, use a good quality chorizo with a smoky flavor.
- Make sure to toast the cornbread cubes before adding them to the stuffing. This will help them hold their shape and prevent them from becoming soggy.
- If you don't have homemade chicken stock, you can use store-bought chicken broth in its place.
Conclusion:
This adobo-rubbed turkey breast with chorizo cornbread stuffing is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for any occasion. The turkey breast is juicy and tender, while the chorizo cornbread stuffing is savory and moist. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
