    14.8 oz
  • eggs
    2 large
  • salted butter

    melted

    4 tbsp
  • can cream of mushroom soup
    10.5 oz
  • milk
    1 c

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400F degrees. Spray a 9"x 13" or 11"x 7" baking dish (whichever you have) with non-stick cooking spray.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, mix together both pouches of yellow cornbread mix with can of cream style corn, eggs and melted butter (we are not making this to the instructions on the package.)

  3. 3

    In another bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup with the milk.

  4. 4

    Then stir in rotisserie chicken, Montreal chicken seasoning and garlic salt.

  5. 5

    Spread half of the cornbread mixture into the bottom of your prepared baking dish.

  6. 6

    Next, spread out the chicken mixture on top of the cornbread layer.

  7. 7

    Finally, pour the remaining cornbread mixture over top of the chicken layer.

  8. 8

    Top with shredded cheese.

  9. 9

    Add a few pickled banana peppers (or jalapeño/peperoncini slices) on top (optional) Cover and bake for about 45-60 minutes (oven times vary.)

  10. 10

    Stick a toothpick into the center. If it comes back with any wet cornbread on it then it needs a few more minutes to cook. You may need to remove the cover during the last 10 minutes or so of cooking to make sure it gets browned and fully baked in the middle.

About this Recipe

Craving a deeply satisfying, comforting meal that brings everyone to the table with minimal fuss? This Cornbread Chicken Casserole is a true family favorite, delivering rich flavors and textures using convenient, readily available ingredients.

This recipe shines by cleverly combining pantry staples with the time-saving magic of store-bought rotisserie chicken and cornbread mix. The blend of creamed corn, cream of mushroom soup, and melted butter creates an incredibly moist and flavorful base, ensuring every bite is as delicious as the last. It's a smart way to transform simple ingredients into a hearty, wholesome main course.

Prepare for a truly comforting experience with every spoonful. You'll enjoy tender, seasoned chicken enveloped in a savory, creamy sauce, all crowned with a golden, comforting layer of cornbread. The addition of pepper jack cheese melts into a delightfully gooey, slightly spicy topping that perfectly complements the sweetness of the creamed corn and the robust flavor of the Montreal chicken seasoning. It’s a hearty dish that feels both familiar and special.

Feel free to customize this casserole to suit your taste. Instead of store-bought rotisserie chicken, you can use any leftover cooked chicken you have on hand. While pepper jack cheese offers a pleasant kick, a sharp cheddar or a mild Monterey Jack would also work wonderfully. For those who enjoy a brighter note, don't skip the optional sliced pickled banana peppers for a tangy contrast.

This robust casserole is ideal for a cozy weeknight dinner or a casual family get-together. It’s a complete meal on its own, offering both protein and a comforting side in one dish. Garnish with those pickled banana peppers for a pop of color and flavor.
