Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     side-dish

Time 2h25m

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 cup wild rice
Kosher salt
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus extra for greasing the dish
3/4 pound Spanish-style chorizo, diced (order from Dartagnan) (it's not raw or totally cured and cooked...it's kind of in between)
1 1/4 cups diced Spanish onion
1/2 cup diced carrots
1/2 cup diced celery
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
6 cups day-old country-style bread, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/2 cup chopped fresh flat leaf parsley
3-5 cups homemade chicken stock
1 large egg, lightly beaten
6 ounces goat cheese, cut into small pieces
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Combine the rice, 4 cups water and 1 tablespoon of salt in a large saucepan, cover and bring to a boil over high heat and cook until the grains open all the way, about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours. The rice should be very cooked (not even the slightest chewy). Drain well, place in a large bowl and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a 13x9x2 -inch baking dish.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a medium saute pan over high heat. Add the chorizo and cook until golden brown. Remove the sausage with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels.
  • Melt the remaining butter in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the onions, carrots and celery and cook until soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and thyme and cook for 1 minute.
  • Add the onion mixture, bread, parsley, 3 cups of the chicken stock and the egg to the rice and mix well to combine. The mixture should be very wet; add more stock, if needed. Fold in the goat cheese and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and bake, uncovered, until heated through and golden brown, about 30 minutes. Remove the dressing from the oven and let rest 10 minutes before serving.

  • Use different types of bread. This recipe uses a combination of white and wild rice, but you can also use other types of bread, such as sourdough, French bread, or cornbread.
  • Use fresh herbs. Fresh herbs, such as parsley, sage, and thyme, will add a lot of flavor to your stuffing.
  • Don't overcook the stuffing. Stuffing should be cooked until it is heated through, but not so long that it becomes dry and crumbly. Aim for an internal temperature of 165°F.<
  • Serve stuffing immediately. Stuffing is best served immediately after it is cooked. If you need to make it ahead of time, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
