Not Sure What Goes With Cornbread? We got you covered! Below we list all of our favorite dishes that pair perfectly with cornbread, including hearty chili, BBQ chicken, juicy steak, hot honey, and more.
In a 5 quart dutch oven or large pot, heat oil on medium heat. Add bell pepper and onion and cook until the onion is fragrant and translucent, about 3-5 minutes.
1 onion, 1 red or green bell pepper, 2 tablespoon olive oil
Add turkey breast and break apart the meat into crumbly pieces. Allow the turkey to cook until it is no longer pink. Stir in garlic and soy sauce, and simmer for 3 more minutes.
Add tomatoes, water, corn, kidney beans, chiles, bay leaf, cumin, chili flakes, and salt. Stir the ingredients until well-mixed.
1 cup water, 1 15 oz can whole kernel corn juice, 2 15 oz cans kidney beans juice, 1 4 oz can diced green chiles, 1 bay leaf, 4 teaspoon ground cumin, 2 teaspoon chili flakes, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 2 28 oz canned crushed tomatoes with juice
Cover the pot and turn the heat down to low-medium. Allow the chili to simmer for 25 minutes.
While the chili is simmering, bake the Crunchy Garlic Tortilla Strips by slicing the corn tortillas into thirds, then cutting each third into strips. Next, in a mixing bowl, toss the tortilla strips with vegetable oil, garlic powder, and salt to taste until evenly coated. Once coated, place the tortilla strips on a baking sheet and cook in the oven for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving with chili.

While the chili is simmering, make the Homemade Greek Yogurt by using a food processor to pulse and blend Greek yogurt, onion powder, garlic powder, kosher salt, lemon juice, green onions, and water until creamy and well mixed, about 30 seconds.

Once the chili is cooked, let it sit for 5-10 minutes to thicken. Serve in bowls and garnish with Crunchy Garlic Tortilla Strips, cheese, Greek yogurt, onions, cilantro, and lime juice.
