This hearty beef casserole features a rich chili and beef baked under a layer of flavorful cornbread. To prepare, simmer ground beef in a tomato salsa with corn and spices, including the ground chili that gives the dish its name. The chili is then coated in corn muffin batter (made with store-bought cornbread mix) and baked in the oven until the topping is set. Serve the casserole topped with grated cheddar and a drizzle of sour cream.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering, about 2 minutes. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the ground beef to the onion and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain off any excess fat.
  2. Add salsa, corn, vegetable broth, chili powder, cumin, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper to the meat. Transfer everything to a 22x32 cm baking dish, spreading it out in an even layer.

  3. In a large bowl, combine corn muffin mix and milk. Spread the batter in a thin layer over the chili. Bake until golden brown, 30-40 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside for 10 minutes to set. Serve sprinkled with grated cheddar and drizzled with sour cream.

    Note

    Hot Mexican chili powder is a seasoning used to add heat. It all starts with dried red chili peppers, which are roasted, ground, and then mixed with spices like cumin, oregano, garlic powder, and salt.
