TAMALE PIE WITH FRESH TOMATO AND CORN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F. Heat an 8" cast-iron skillet over high. Pat chorizo and beef dry with paper towels, then press into an even layer in bottom of hot skillet with a spatula. Cook, undisturbed, until a brown crust begins to form on the bottom, about 6 minutes. Turn, break into pieces, and continue to cook until cooked through, about 4 minutes. Add tomato paste, cumin, half of grated onion, half of jalapeño, and 1 1/4 tsp. salt and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant and well combined, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in tomatoes, 1 1/2 cups corn, and 1 1/2 cups cheese.
• Whisk eggs, butter, 1/3 cup sour cream, and remaining onion in a medium bowl. Whisk cornmeal, baking powder, and remaining 1/2 tsp. salt in a small bowl. Add dry ingredients to butter mixture and stir to combine, then stir in 1/4 cup cheese and remaining 1/2 cup corn.
• Dollop cornbread batter over meat mixture, then smooth into an even layer. Top with remaining jalapeños and 1/4 cup cheese.
• Bake cornbread until golden brown, 15-18 minutes. Serve with sour cream alongside.
