Ingredients
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 lb ground chicken
- 1 white onion chopped
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups green salsa
- 1 cup corn fresh or frozen
- 8 oz black beans canned
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp cumin ground
- 1/2 tsp black pepper fresh cracked
Cornbread Topping:
- 8.5 oz cornbread mix See Note 1, brand Jiffy
- 1 egg
- 1/3 cup milk
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375° F.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat add the oil and lightly brown the ground chicken. Add onion, garlic and sauté for 3 minutes. Sprinkle flour over all and stir to mix, cooking for another 2 minutes. Stir in green salsa, corn, beans, salt, pepper, cumin and black pepper. Simmer 10 minutes or until thickened. Pour into a greased 9x9” baking dish or pie dish.
- Feel free to use Jiffy cornbread mix here to make this easy, but my Homemade Cornbread recipe is fantastic. Mix the cornbread mix, egg and milk in a small bowl. Pour this over meat mixture and bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown on top and toothpick comes out clean when inserted into cornbread.
Notes
- I have a Homemade Cornbread recipe that can be used instead of the Jiffy store bought version. This might make a little more for a thicker topping. Feel free to omit the corn and jalapeños if you like.
