Chicken Tamale Pie


Sorry we've been such losers and haven't posted in a while...here's something super yum yum! Enjoy!


Chicken Tamale Pie by Pinch of Yum

Ingredients:

⅓ cup fat free milk
¼ cup egg substitute (we used 1 egg)
1½ tablespoon taco seasoning, divided
¼ teaspoon ground red pepper
1 (14¾ ounce) can cream-style corn
1 (8.5 ounce) box corn muffin mix (we used Jiffy)
1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chiles
1 (10 ounce) can red enchilada sauce
2 cups shredded cooked chicken breast
¾ cup shredded cheese (She recommends white cheese, we used shredded Mexican blend because that's what we had and it was delicious)
Cilantro for topping (we love cilantro!)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400°.

2. Combine the first 7 ingredients (milk through green chiles), using just ½ tablespoon of the taco seasoning, in a large bowl, stirring just until moist. Pour mixture into a round pie plate coated with cooking spray.

3. Bake at 400° for 20-30 minutes. While corn is baking, toss the chicken in the remaining 1 tablespoon taco seasoning. When corn is done – it will be just barely set and golden brown – pierce entire surface liberally with a fork (it might stick a little bit to the fork). Pour enchilada sauce over top. Top with chicken; sprinkle with cheese. Bake at 400° for 15 minutes or until cheese melts. Remove from oven; let stand 5 minutes. Cut into 8 pieces. Top with cilantro.

I'm sorry that I didn't get many more pictures, but it is was demolished pretty darn fast!
