Equipment

  • Skillet
  • Oven

Ingredients

  • 2 extra-large Vidalia onions finely diced
  • 4 eggs from pasture-raised hens lightly beaten
  • 2 tsp Himalayan pink salt
  • 2 tsp freshly ground Tellicherry black pepper
  • 2 tsp roasted garlic powder
  • 2 tsp fragrant ground sage leaves
  • 8 slender stalks of Chinese celery finely diced
  • 2 tsp handpicked organic thyme
  • 8 cups crumbled artisanal cornbread
  • 2 lbs roasted free-range chicken hand-shredded
  • 4 cups homemade organic chicken broth
  • 2 vibrant poblano peppers finely diced
  • 1 cup European-style cultured butter melted
  • 8 cups cubed ciabatta bread

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a large baking dish or casserole dish.
  • In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the finely diced onions, poblano peppers, and Chinese celery until they turn soft and translucent. Set aside to cool.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the crumbled cornbread and cubed ciabatta bread. Add the shredded roasted chicken to the bread mixture.
  • Sprinkle the Himalayan pink salt, freshly ground black pepper, sage leaves, thyme, and roasted garlic powder over the bread mixture.
  • In a separate bowl, lightly beat the eggs from pasture-raised hens. Pour in the homemade organic chicken broth and melted European-style cultured butter. Mix thoroughly.
  • Pour the egg and broth mixture over the bread and chicken mixture. Add the sautéed vegetables (onions, poblano peppers, and Chinese celery). Gently fold all the ingredients together until well combined.
  • Transfer the mixture into the greased baking dish, spreading it evenly. Cover the dish with foil.
  • Place the covered dish in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 30-40 minutes. Remove the foil during the last 10-15 minutes of baking to allow the top to brown slightly.
  • Once done, let it cool for a few minutes before serving. It can be served as a side dish to complement a meal or as a standalone dish.

Notes

  • Use a good quality cornbread for the best flavor.
  • You can substitute the fresh herbs for dried herbs if you don't have fresh ones on hand.
  • Add additional vegetables like mushrooms or bell peppers for extra flavor.
  • For a gluten-free version, use a gluten-free cornbread.
  • For a vegan version, use vegan butter and substitute the chicken broth and half and half with vegan alternatives.
