EASY CHILI CORNBREAD BAKE



Easy Chili Cornbread Bake image

Chili and cornbread go so well together, why not bake them in the same pan! I've been making this for years and my kids love it. I use ground turkey, but ground beef could be substituted if preferred. You can make this in individual 12- to 16-ounce casseroles if you prefer. Serve with tortilla chips and top with sour cream if desired.

BAKED CHILI CHEESE CORN



BAKED CHILI CHEESE CORN image

Categories     Vegetable     Side

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 cups frozen corn, thawed and drained
1 cup cheddar cheese
1 8-oz. package cream cheese, room temperature
1 7-oz. can diced green chilies
2 tsp. chili power
2 tsp. ground cumin

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350º F. Mix all ingredients until well combined. Transfer to prepared large dish and bake until bubbling, about 30 minutes. Hint: grilling without the husk and basting with melted butter with your favorite herb or garlic will give you a very sweet ear of corn. Cook the corn until some of it is light to dark brown. The sugar in the corn caramelizes and you will not need to put anything else on it.

Time 40m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 lb ground beef
1 cup onion (chopped)
1/2 cup green pepper (chopped, I often add more)
1 garlic clove (minced)
1 (16 ounce) can red kidney beans (rinsed and drained)
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 (35 g) package taco seasoning mix (package size likely varies from brand to brand)
1 cup flour
1 cup yellow cornmeal
2 tablespoons sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 (8 ounce) can creamed corn
1/2 cup milk
1 egg
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 - grease a 2 quart casserole.
  • In large pan over medium heat cook ground beef, onions, pepper and garlic until meat is browned - drain.
  • Stir in beans, tomato sauce and taco seasoning; reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes.
  • In medium bowl: combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt; mix well.
  • In small bowl: combine corn, milk and egg - beat well and add to dry ingredients.
  • Spoon half of the cornbread mixture into greased casserole; sprinkle with half the cheese.
  • Spoon chili over cheese; sprinkle with remaining half of the cheese.
  • Spoon remaining corn bread mixture evenly over the cheese spreading gently to cover.
  • Bake at 350 for 30 to 40 minutes or until top is golden brown.

Tips:

  • Select Fresh Corn: Choose corn on the cob with bright green husks and tightly packed kernels. Fresh corn provides the best flavor and texture to the dish.
  • Roast Corn Properly: Roasting the corn on the cob adds a smoky and slightly charred flavor. Make sure to roast the corn until the kernels are tender and slightly browned.
  • Use Good Quality Cheese: The type of cheese you use significantly impacts the flavor of the dip. Opt for a sharp cheddar cheese or a blend of cheddar and Monterey Jack for a classic flavor combination.
  • Add Spices Wisely: Chili powder, cumin, and paprika are common spices used in chili cheese corn dip. Start with a small amount and adjust to taste to avoid overpowering the other flavors.
  • Don't Overcook the Dip: Once you combine all the ingredients, heat the dip gently until the cheese is melted and smooth. Overcooking can result in a rubbery texture.
  • Serve with Fresh Toppings: Garnish the dip with fresh cilantro, diced tomatoes, green onions, or sour cream before serving. These toppings add color, flavor, and texture.

Conclusion:

Baked chili cheese corn is a versatile and crowd-pleasing appetizer or snack that combines the flavors of roasted corn, melted cheese, and chili spices. With its easy-to-follow recipe and customizable ingredients, this dish is perfect for casual gatherings, potlucks, or game days.
