The traditional ingredients of American bread stuffing—chicken broth and bread cubes—are enhanced in this recipe with chorizo chunks and classic Mexican ingredients: queso fresco, corn tortilla chips, chili peppers, and fresh cilantro. This gives this bread side dish for a festive turkey a vibrant Latin American flavor. The bread must be stale to prevent the stuffing from turning mush. If you only have fresh bread, toast it in the oven.
