Skillet Chili Pie With Corn Bread Topping Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oil in 12-inch cast-iron skillet over high heat until very hot. Sprinkle the beef with salt and pepper and toss with 1 tablespoon of the flour and 1 tablespoon of the cornmeal. Add the beef to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is browned, 6 to 10 minutes.
• Reduce heat to medium. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring often, until onion is soft, about 8 minutes. Add the chili powder (use less if you like milder chili) and cumin and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the chicken stock, tomatoes, beans and 1 tablespoon of the sugar and bring to simmer. Cook until the meat becomes tender and the sauce has thickened, about 30 minutes. If the liquid reduces to less than three-quarters of the way up the sides of the meat, stir in a little water.
• Meanwhile, position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. Whisk the remaining 3/4 cup cornmeal, 3/4 cup flour, 3 tablespoons sugar, baking soda and 1 teaspoon salt together in a medium bowl. Whisk the sour cream, milk and egg together in another bowl. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking until well combined. Stir in the melted butter and Cheddar cheese. Drop oval-shaped spoonfuls of batter on top of the chili, leaving space in between. The batter will not completely cover the chili.
• Bake until the cornbread is golden brown and springs back when touched, and the chili is hot and bubbly, about 17 minutes. Remove the skillet from the oven and serve with more sour cream.

Steps:

• For the chili: Heat the oil in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the squash and a pinch of salt and black pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the squash is tender and browned in spots, about 8 minutes. Remove the squash from the pan and set aside.
• Reduce the heat to medium. Add the garlic and onion and cook, stirring often, until the onion is soft, about 8 minutes. Add the chili powder (use less if you like milder chili) and cumin and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the vegetable stock, tomatoes, beans, sugar and cooked squash and bring to a simmer. Cook until all of the vegetables are tender and the sauce has thickened, about 30 minutes. (If the liquid reduces to less than three-quarters of the way up the sides of the squash, stir in a little water.) Stir in the baby spinach by the handful until all is incorporated and wilted.
• For the cornbread topping: Meanwhile, position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. Whisk the cornmeal, flour, baking soda, sugar and 1 teaspoon salt together in a medium bowl. Whisk the milk, sour cream and egg together in another bowl. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking until well combined. Stir in the melted butter and Cheddar. Drop spoonfuls of the batter on top of the chili, leaving space in between. (The batter will not completely cover the chili.)
• Bake until the cornbread is golden brown and springs back when touched and the chili is hot and bubbly, about 18 minutes. Serve with more sour cream and pickled jalapenos.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
• Spray a large skillet with cooking spray and place over medium-high heat. Saute onion until translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add meat, chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Stir together and cook until meat is browned and crumbled and almost cooked through, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes and beans and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk together buttermilk, egg, and oil in a large bowl. Add cornmeal, salt, and baking soda and stir together until batter is combined.
• Transfer meat mixture to the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle Mexican cheese blend on top. Pour cornbread batter evenly over meat and arrange jalapeno slices on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cornbread topping is evenly browned, 25 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
• Make the chili: Heat the olive oil in a 4-quart cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until soft and browned. Add the garlic and jalapeño, and sauté for another minute, until fragrant.
• Add the ground beef and cook for 5-7 minutes, until cooked through and browned. If there is a large amount of excess oil, spoon out of the skillet and discard.
• Stir in the tomato paste, diced tomatoes, kidney beans, chili powder, cumin, cinnamon, oregano, salt, and water, and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the cornbread batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
• In a liquid measuring cup or medium bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and vegetable oil.
• While whisking continuously, slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until everything is moistened.
• Remove the chili from the heat and sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly across the surface.
• Pour the cornbread batter over the chili and cheese, and spread evenly all the way to the edges of the pan.
• Bake for 25 minutes, or until the cornbread is golden brown on top. Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
• Scoop the chili and cornbread into bowls and garnish with cilantro.
