Corn Bread-Topped Chicken Enchilada Casserole
Ingredients:
Nonstick cooking spray
12 ounces skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into bite-size pieces
1 10 - ounce can enchilada sauce
1 8 - ounce can no-salt-added tomato sauce
1 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
1 4 - ounce can diced green chile peppers, undrained
2 ounces thinly sliced Monterey Jack cheese with jalapeno peppers, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed
1/2 teaspoon dried basil, crushed
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
Corn bread topper
3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons granulated sugar*
1 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup fat-free milk
1/3 cup refrigerated or frozen egg product, thawed
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 cup sliced green onions
Fat-free plain Greek yogurt (optional)
Directions:
1. Lightly coat the inside of a 4-quart slow cooker with cooking spray; set aside. Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook just until browned, about 3 minutes.
2. In the prepared slow cooker combine the chicken, enchilada sauce, tomato sauce, beans, green chile peppers, cheese, cumin, oregano, basil, and chili powder.
3. Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 3 hours or on high-heat setting for 1 1/2 hours.
4. For corn bread topper, in a medium bowl stir together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a small bowl combine milk, egg product, and melted butter. Add milk mixture all at once to cornmeal mixture; stir just until moistened (mixture will be thin).
5. If using low-heat setting, turn cooker to high-heat setting. Gently spoon cornbread topper evenly over mixture in cooker.
6. Cover and cook about 50 minutes more or until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center of corn bread comes out clean. (Do not lift cover during cooking.) Top with sliced green onions. If desired, top with yogurt. Serve immediately.
