Ingredients for Chorizo and Winter Greens Sourdough Stuffing
Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9×12-inch baking dish.

Step 2

To a skillet over medium heat, add the chorizo sausage. Break up using a wooden spoon and cook until browned. Remove using a slotted spoon and set aside until ready to use.

Step 3

To the same skillet add butter, garlic, onion, celery and sage. Cook until the vegetables begin to soften, about 8 minutes.

Step 4

Add the winter greens. Season generously with salt and pepper. Cook until the greens have wilted, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
