Ingredients
- 2 Green Onions
- 1 Red Onion
- 1 Jalapeño Pepper
- 2 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
- 5 oz. Cornbread Mix
- 2 oz. Shredded Cheddar Cheese
- 2 tsp. BBQ Spice Rub
- 3 BBQ Sauce Packets
- 2 oz. Sour Cream
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
-
Trim and thinly slice green onions on an angle. Halve and peel onion. Cut halves into ¼" dice. Slice half the jalapeño into very thin rounds. Seed, remove ribs, and mince remaining jalapeño. Be sure to wash hands, utensils, and cutting board after working with jalapeño. Pat chicken breasts dry. On a separate cutting board, cut chicken into ½" dice.
-
Set aside 2 Tbsp. cornbread mix. Combine remaining cornbread mix with ½ cup water, cheese, and green onions in a large mixing bowl. Stir, adding water 2 Tbsp. at a time, until fully combined and a thick, spreadable batter forms.
-
Place a medium oven-safe pan over medium-high heat. For best results, use a pan with less than 10" diameter. You may also use a cast iron skillet. Add 2 tsp. olive oil and chicken to hot pan. Stir occasionally until browned, 2-3 minutes.
-
Add onion, minced jalapeño (reserve rounds for garnish), reserved cornbread mix, and BBQ spice rub to pan with chicken. Stir occasionally until onion is translucent, 2-3 minutes. Stir in ½ cup water and BBQ sauce. Stir occasionally until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes.
-
Top filling with cornbread batter. Use a spatula dipped in water or sprayed with cooking spray to smooth top. Bake until cornbread is golden brown, 20-25 minutes. Rest at least 5 minutes to cool slightly and set. Plate dish as pictured on front of card, garnishing cooled pie with sour cream and jalapeño rounds. Bon appétit!
