Ingredients

• 3 cups Cooked shredded chicken
• 2 cups Green enchilada sauce

• 2 cups Shredded Monterey Jack cheese
• 15 ounces Cornbread mix
• 1 Egg
• 1 cup Milk
• 1 cup Creamed corn
• 2 tablespoons Butter, melted

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set it aside.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, prepare the cornbread batter by combining the cornbread mix, egg, milk, creamed corn, and melted butter. Stir until combined, being careful not to overmix.

Step 3

Pour the cornbread batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until it's just set but not fully cooked.

Step 4

While the cornbread is baking, prepare the Suiza topping. In a large mixing bowl, combine the green enchilada sauce, sour cream, and diced green chilies. Mix until smooth.

Step 5

Remove the partially baked cornbread from the oven and evenly distribute the shredded chicken over the top of the cornbread layer.

Step 6

Pour the Suiza topping mixture over the chicken and spread it evenly using a spatula.

Step 7

Sprinkle the shredded Monterey Jack cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.

Step 8

Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the casserole is cooked through.

Step 9

Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with fresh chopped cilantro for garnish before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm and enjoy!
