Ingredients
For the Filling
- 1 lb. ground beef
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 2 small cloves garlic, minced or pressed (about 1 teaspoon total)
- 1 (11 ounce) can corn kernels, drained
- 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed tomato soup, not diluted
- 1 cup water
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
Cornbread Topping (see alternative made-from-scratch topping below)
- 1 (8.5 ounce) box Jiffy corn muffin mix
- 1 large egg
- ⅓ cup milk
- Optional garnish: grated cheddar cheese, sour cream, parsley or cilantro, chopped red onion, sliced green onion
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Lightly grease a 2-quart baking dish; set aside.
Prepare Ground Beef Filling
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef and onion until the meat is no longer pink and the onions are translucent (about 7-10 minutes). Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds longer. Drain off the fat.
- Stir in the corn, tomato soup, water, chili powder and salt. Reduce heat to low and simmer for about 15 minutes. Transfer the beef mixture to the prepared baking dish.
Prepare Cornbread Topping
- In a medium bowl, stir together the cornbread mix, egg, and milk.
- Spread the batter over the beef mixture.
Bake the Casserole
- Bake at 425°F for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown and the topping is cooked through. Let stand for about 5-10 minutes before serving.
Notes
- To prepare a made-from-scratch cornbread topping, stir together the following ingredients:
- ¾ cup cornmeal
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- ½ cup milk
- 1 tablespoon canola oil (or other mild oil of choice)
- 1 teaspoon sugar (optional, if you like a slightly sweet cornbread crust)
