Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step
10 mins

In a large bowl, whisk together the cream-style corn, corn muffin mix, thawed corn kernels, Greek yogurt, and eggs until well combined. Pour the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish. (Prep time: 10 minutes)

03

Step
30 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the cornbread is set and lightly golden brown. (Bake time: 30 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

While the cornbread bakes, toss the chopped cooked chicken with the barbecue sauce in a separate bowl, ensuring the chicken is evenly coated. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

05

Step
5 mins

Remove the cornbread casserole from the oven. Spread the BBQ chicken mixture evenly over the top of the cornbread. Sprinkle the shredded Cheddar cheese generously over the chicken. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

06

Step
15 mins

Return the casserole to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and the chicken is heated through. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. (Bake time: 15 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the cornbread batter.
Feel free to use your favorite BBQ sauce. A smoky or spicy variety will add a unique twist.
To prevent the cornbread from browning too quickly, you can tent the dish with foil during the last 10 minutes of baking.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave.

    My cornbread came out a little dry. Next time, I'll add a tablespoon or two of melted butter to the batter.
