Chipotle Tamale Pie
By: cookiedog

I watched Ingrid Hoffman make this on her debut on the Food Channel. I love chipotles and plan to make this very soon!
SERVES 8
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 lb lean ground turkey
- 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
- 1 green bell pepper, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, finely minced
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1 (15 ounce) can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 (8 ounce) can diced tomatoes
- 2 chipotle chiles, chopped plus
- 1 teaspoon adobo sauce, from can chipotle in adobo
- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
- 1 (8 1/2 ounce) package cornbread mix
- 1 egg
- 1/3 cup milk
Directions
1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.2
Grease an 8-inch baking dish with the butter and set it aside.3
Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the ground turkey, the onions, green peppers, and garlic and cook until the turkey is no longer pink and is cooked through, about 8 minutes. Drain off any excess fat and sprinkle the meat mixture with the cumin.4
Add the beans, tomatoes, chiles and adobo sauce to the skillet and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until heated through and slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove pan from the heat and stir in the cheese and cilantro.5
Spread the turkey mixture in the prepared baking dish, pressing down on it with the back of a spoon to make an even, compact layer.6
Combine the cornbread mix with milk and egg and spread the cornbread batter over the turkey mixture and bake until the cornbread is golden-brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Let the tamale pie stand for 5 minutes before cutting into squares and serving.

Wonderful texture and flavors combine in this recipe although the 2 chipotles does not make it spicy at all. The cheese and beans give the filling a wonderful smoothness and I too used Jiffy cornbread for a "sweet" topping. Subbed lean ground beef, used cooking spray, and left out the g. peppers due to kids' tastes. I almost always have to sub onion powder for onion in every recipe. The taste did not suffer at all. so easy - a keeper!

I share the posting chef's fondness for chipotles and thought in a tamale pie the fiery condiment would work supremely well. The dish held up to it's promise and brunch today was a delight. Made a few modifications to suit my lowfat lifestyle, none of which compromised the delightful flavors in the dish. (Indeed the bold flavors here make it a perfect candidate for substitutions.) I omitted both the buttering of the baking dish using cooking spray instead. Also left out the oil used to cook the turkey without issue. Used a reduced fat cheddar and Recipe # 87115 for my cornbread topping. My one comment, not related to the calorie reduction items was that I found the pie filling not quite saucy enough for my tastes so I added some additional tomatoes with chilies and 1 tablespoon of tomato paste and water. That made this just perfect for me. Thanks cookiedog. Made for *Photo Tag*.

I tried this last weekend. It is really good. I had to improvise on some of the ingredients, but it was wonderful. Everyone asked for the recipe. I used black beans, added some additional montery jack cheese, beef instead of turkey, crushed coriander because I didn't have cilantro and was completely out of cumin so I couldn't add that. I can't wait to try it as posted, but it was really good dispite my alterations. Thanks for a great one Cookie.

I also saw this on Simply Delicioso and tried it immediately....I Love the chipotle & adobo, I did 2 tsp of the adobo sauce and used "jiffy" brand cornbread mix because it is a sweeter mix and the sweet/savory/kick just melded together !!! Great dish!
