4 whole Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts
1 can (15 1/2 Oz. Size) Black Beans, Rinsed And Drained
1 can (15 1/2 Oz. Size) Chili Beans With Sauce
1 can (10 Oz. Size) Enchilada Sauce
1 whole Lime, Juiced
1 teaspoon Chili Powder
1 teaspoon Cumin
1/2 teaspoons Black Pepper
2 dashes Cayenne Pepper
1/4 cups Finely Diced Or Minced Onion
2 cloves Minced Garlic
2 cups Shredded Cheese, Such As Sharp Cheddar Or Taco Blend
2 boxes (8 1/2 Oz. Size) Jiffy Cornbread Mix, Do Not Prepare According To Box Instructions
⅔ cups Milk
3 whole Eggs

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