Pantry Raid Chicken Enchilada Casserole
A delicious and easy casserole combining chicken, black beans, and cornbread topping.
Ingredients
- tomato sauce (1 can)
- water (0.25 cup)
- taco seasoning mix (1 envelope)
- chili powder (1.5 tablespoons)
- vegetable oil (1 tablespoon)
- chicken breast tenderloins (1 pound)
- black beans (1 can)
- cream cheese (0.25 cup)
- shredded Mexican-style cheese blend (1 cup)
- corn bread mix (1 package)
- egg (1 )
- milk (0.33 cup)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.
- Mix tomato sauce, water, taco seasoning mix, and chili powder together in a saucepan; bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat and brown chicken tenderloins on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Pour tomato sauce mixture over the chicken, bring to a simmer, and cook over medium-low heat until chicken tenderloins are no longer pink inside, about 8 minutes. Transfer chicken to a bowl and shred; return shredded chicken to the sauce. Mix in black beans and cream cheese until thoroughly combined.
- Pour chicken mixture into prepared baking dish. Top with shredded Mexican cheese. Whisk corn bread mix, egg, and milk in a bowl, and spoon the batter over the chicken mix.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the casserole is bubbling and the corn bread topping is browned and set, about 30 minutes.
