Ingredients
-
cooking spray
-
1 (8.5 ounce) package cornbread mix (such as Jiffy®)
-
1 egg
-
⅓ cup milk
-
1 pound chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
-
⅓ cup water
-
½ (1 ounce) envelope taco seasoning mix
-
¼ cup barbecue sauce
-
½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
-
Combine cornbread mix, egg, and milk in a bowl. Stir until moistened. Pour into the prepared pan.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until just set, 6 to 8 minutes.
-
While cornbread is baking, cook and stir chicken in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in water and taco seasoning. Simmer for 2 minutes.
-
Remove cornbread from the oven and carefully spread barbecue sauce over the soft surface. Gently lay the chicken over the barbecue sauce. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese over the chicken.
-
Continue baking until melted and browned, about 15 minutes. Let sit for 5 minutes. Cut into individual pieces.
Cook's Notes:
Use water instead of milk in the cornbread batter if desired.
You can substitute ground beef, turkey, etc. for chicken.
