Ingredients

• 1 cup diced onion
• 1 cup diced celery
• 1 (6 ounce) package dry bread stuffing mix
• 1 pound Mexican chorizo sausage, casings removed
• 0.25 cup butter
• 1.25 cups water

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine chorizo, onion, and celery in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir, breaking chorizo up with a spoon until chorizo is browned and crumbly and vegetables are softened, 7 to 9 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.

Step 2

Add water to the same skillet; bring to a boil. Add butter to the boiling water and let melt. Stir in stuffing mix, remove from heat, and cover with a lid. Let stand until stuffing mixture has absorbed the liquid, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Add chorizo mixture to the stuffing mixture and stir until well combined.
