Southwest Shepherds Pie

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2. 2
   Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces.
3. 3
   Spread in the bottom of a 9x13 casserole dish.
4. 4
   In a bowl, mix together beans, enchilada sauce, lime juice, spices, onion and garlic.
5. 5
   Spread over chicken in the casserole dish.
6. 6
   Layer cheese over bean mixture.
7. 7
   In a bowl, combine cornbread mix, milk, and eggs.
8. 8
   The batter will still be a little lumpy.
9. 9
   Spread over the cheese.
10. 10
    Bake uncovered for about 3040 minutes, until cornbread is golden brown, or a fork or toothpick inserted comes out clean.
11. 11
    This is a saucy meal that is best served up with a big spoon and dished into bowls.
12. 12
    A dollop of sour cream makes a great garnish.
13. 13
    Two easy ways to spice this up if your tastebuds are more adventurous than mine: chop up some fresh jalapenos and add them to the cornbread mixture, and use hot enchilada sauce instead of mild.
