Number of Servings:
Ingredients:
- 3 cups - diced cooked chicken (about 12 ounces)
- 1 1/2 cups - prepared salsa
- 1 cans - 15-oz. black beans drained and rinsed
- 1 1/2 cups - chicken broth
- 1 tablespoons - chili powder
- 2 - scallions (white and green parts), sliced
- 3/4 cups - cornmeal
- 1 cups - shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoons - unsalted butter
- - Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- - Sour cream, for serving
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Heat the chicken, salsa, beans, 1/2 cup of the broth and the chili powder in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat, stirring, until simmering. Stir in the scallions and remove from the heat.
Meanwhile, combine the cornmeal with the remaining 1 cup broth and 1 cup water in a medium pan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring, until very thick, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the cheese and butter. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
Spread the cornmeal mixture over the filling and bake until cooked through, about 30 minutes. Let stand for 15 minutes. Serve with sour cream.
If you do not have a cast iron skillet, simply cook the chicken mixture in a skillet, and transfer into a baking dish after removing from heat. Top that with the cornmeal mixture and bake as directed above.
