Cooking Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add bite-sized pieces of chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is no longer pink. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside, keeping the flavorful drippings in the skillet.
- In the same skillet, melt two tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add chopped onions and sauté for about 2 minutes, stirring until softened and fragrant.
- Stir in your frozen mixed vegetables, allowing them to heat through for about 3-4 minutes.
- Sprinkle in three tablespoons of flour and cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Gradually whisk in 2 cups of chicken broth, followed by one cup of milk. Cook until it thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
- Once thickened, return the cooked chicken to the skillet and gently fold it into the creamy vegetable mixture.
- Prepare the cornbread mix according to package instructions, then pour the cornbread batter evenly over the chicken mixture in the baking dish.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and bake for 22-26 minutes, or until the cornbread topping is firm and golden brown.
- Once baked, remove the Cornbread Casserole from the oven and let it rest for about 5 minutes before serving.
