Best Tortilla Chip Cornbread Recipes

EASY CHILI CORNBREAD BAKE

Steps:

• Cook turkey, celery, and onion in a skillet over medium heat until turkey is no longer pink, 5 to 7 minutes. Add chili powder, black pepper, cumin, and red pepper. Cook and stir for 2 minutes. Stir in tomato sauce, chili beans, and cannellini beans. Cook until heated through, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
• Combine cornbread mixes, milk, and egg in a bowl and mix well. Spoon batter into the prepared baking pan. Spoon turkey mixture over batter.
• Bake in the preheated oven, uncovered, until edges of cornbread are nicely browned and center appears to be set, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle Cheddar cheese on top. Return to the hot oven and bake until cheese is melted, 5 to 10 minutes more.

TORTILLA CHIP CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Note: pulse tortilla chips in a blender or food processor to get them finely crushed. It's okay if they aren't as finely crushed as cornmeal; just get them as small as you can.
• Mix dry ingredients in a medium bowl.
• In a separate bowl, mix butter/margarine, milk and egg.
• Pour wet ingredients into dry, and stir just until combined. Mixture may be slightly lumpy. Pour batter into a greased 8x8-inch square baking dish.
• Bake at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

TORTILLA CHIP SPOONBREAD WITH CHILES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter twelve 4-ounce ramekins, then coat with ground tortilla chips (about 1/4 cup total). Combine the half-and-half, corn, the remaining 1/2 cup ground tortilla chips and 1 teaspoon salt in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, until thick like pudding, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in 1/2 cup cheese.
• Meanwhile, beat the eggs in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until thick and fluffy, 5 minutes. Whisk in half of the corn mixture until combined. Fold in the remaining corn mixture with a rubber spatula, then fold in the jalapeno, scallions and tomatoes.
• Transfer the prepared ramekins to a baking sheet; divide the batter among the ramekins and sprinkle the tops with the remaining 1/4 cup cheese. Bake until the spoonbread is puffed and set, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes. Top with pico de gallo.
