Why This Recipe Is A Favorite

This dish combines tender, flavorful chicken with a creamy sauce and a golden, slightly sweet cornbread topping. It’s comforting and satisfying, making it perfect for family dinners or potlucks. The blend of textures and flavors keeps every bite interesting and delicious.

Helpful Kitchen Tips

- Use fresh cornmeal for the best texture and taste in your cornbread layer.
- Make sure the chicken is cooked through before baking to avoid undercooked meat.
- Let the dish rest for a few minutes after baking to allow the flavors to meld and the cornbread to set.

Step 1

Lightly heat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking. Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat, then add the chopped onion and garlic. Cook them together, stirring occasionally, until they’re soft and fragrant—about 4 to 6 minutes. Once they’re ready, take the pan off the heat and set it aside.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix the corn, cream-style corn, salt, and egg substitute. Stir in the muffin mix until everything is combined, then gently fold in the cooked onion and garlic mixture. Pour this corn batter evenly into the prepared baking dish.

Step 3

In another bowl, combine the chicken, green chiles, mushrooms, sour cream, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Spread this chicken mixture over the corn layer, leaving about an inch of space around the edges. Sprinkle the shredded cheese on top to finish.

Step 4

Pop the dish into the oven and bake for about 35 to 40 minutes, or until the edges turn a nice golden brown. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving so it sets up a bit. Enjoy!

Serving Ideas

Serve this meal with a simple green salad or steamed vegetables to add freshness and balance. A side of pickled jalapeños or a drizzle of hot sauce can also add a nice spicy kick for those who enjoy heat.

Food Storage Tips

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, warm in the oven at a low temperature to keep the cornbread from drying out. This dish can also be frozen; thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
