Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

02

Step

Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add diced chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

03

Step

Add carrots, celery, bell pepper, and scallions. Cook until the vegetables begin to soften, approximately 5 minutes.

04

Step

Stir in diced tomatoes, black beans, chili powder, cumin, granulated garlic, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Combine well and simmer for about 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

05

Step

In a separate bowl, prepare the cornbread batter by combining the corn muffin mix, milk, and egg until just combined.

06

Step

Remove the Dutch oven from the heat and evenly spread the cornbread batter over the top of the chicken mixture.

07

Step

Place the Dutch oven in the preheated oven and bake until the cornbread crust is golden brown and cooked through, about 20-25 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the cornbread should come out clean.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese to the pot pie after baking.
If you prefer a spicier dish, increase the amount of smoked paprika or add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the chili mixture.
Feel free to substitute other vegetables, such as corn or zucchini, based on your preferences and what you have on hand.

    I added a can of corn and some diced poblano peppers – it was delicious!

  • Reagan Wisozkbraun

    This was such a hit with my family! The cornbread crust was perfectly golden and the chili was packed with flavor.

  • Zackery Hilll

    I didn't have diced tomatoes with green chiles, so I used regular diced tomatoes and added a pinch of cayenne pepper. It worked perfectly!

  • Ari Hauck

    This recipe is a keeper! I've already made it twice in the past month.

  • Pink King

    My cornbread was a little dry, so next time I'll add a tablespoon of melted butter to the batter.

  • Leila Cole

    Easy to follow and a great one-pot meal for a busy weeknight.

  • Era Klein

    The kids loved it! They even asked for seconds, which is a rare occurrence.
