CORNBREAD CHICKEN CASSEROLE
This cornbread chicken casserole really a whole meal in one. Now, because it is a casserole, it isn’t the the prettiest thing in the world. I mean, not many casseroles are stunners in the looks department but they are hands-down the tastiest food to eat. It’s what’s on the inside that counts, right? A creamy chicken center surrounded by yummy cornbread and topped with gooey cheese!
TIPS FOR MAKING DELICIOUS FAMILY MEAL:
- For less heat, substitute Montery Jack cheese for Pepper Jack cheese. Or go with a Mexican cheese blend!
- Also, if you don’t enjoy cream of mushroom, try switching it out for cream of celery or cream of chicken.
- I use all of the entire rotisserie chicken (dark & white meat). If you prefer only white meat, look for the “family-size” rotisserie chicken. These are larger and will give you more breast meat.

Ingredients
- 2 pouches Martha White Yellow Cornbread mix
- 1 14.75 oz can cream style sweet corn
- 2 eggs
- 4 tbsp butter melted
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup milk
- 2 cups rotisserie chicken chopped
- 1 tsp Montreal chicken seasoning
- 1 tsp garlic salt
- 2 cups pepper jack cheese shredded
- sliced pickled banana peppers for topping or jalapenos, optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400f degrees.
- Spray a 9 x 9 or 11 x 7 baking dish (whichever you have) with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, mix together both pouches of Martha White yellow cornbread mix with can of cream style corn, eggs and melted butter (we are not making this to the instructions on the package.)
- In another bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup with the milk.
- Then stir in rotisserie chicken, Montreal chicken seasoning and garlic salt.
- Now to assemble the casserole.
- Spread half of the cornbread mixture into the bottom of your prepared baking dish.
- Next, spread out the chicken mixture on top of the cornbread layer.
- Finally, pour the remaining cornbread mixture over top of the chicken layer.
- Top with shredded cheese.
- Add a few pickled banana peppers (or jalapeño slices) on top.
- This part is optional. It gives folks a heads up that this dish has a little bit of heat to it.
- Cover and bake for about 45-60 minutes.
- You want the cornbread to be fully cooked.
- So 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.
This is definitely comfort food, and I happen to love banana peppers.
Thank you Joanne! Yay for banana peppers – ha!
This looks and sounds SO GOOD, but my husband cannot have the corn. The corn meal is fine, but whole or cream style – NO. Is it possible to make this without the creamed corn? What would you substitute? Thanks!
Lora, you can absolutely leave it out. You will need to replace it with milk (since the creamed corn is substituting for the milk) So for this recipe you would use 1 1/3 cups milk for both packets of cornbread mix. Hope that helps!
Yum Brandie this is definitely my kind of comfort food. I can't wait to try this. 🙂
Can I make this in casserole crock pot?

Hi TC! I do love my casserole crock pot but I haven’t tried it in there. My only concern is that the cornbread might turn out a bit soggy and you won’t get those yummy crispy edges like you would in the oven 🙂
Can you make and freeze for later uncooked or cooked
Do you know how many calories and carbs are in this? Thank you!
So sorry Janet I do not – but there are a bunch of programs online that can calculate that for you! 🙂
I don’t have Martha White in my stores. How do I adjust my recipe? I’m making this for dinner tonight. HELP!!!!
Hey Lisa! Just use another packet of cornbread mix. It’ll still work! 🙂
I discovered this recipe a few months ago and I have made it twice. The first time I prepared it, I used an 11 x 7 rectangular pan. The next time I used the 9 x 9 square pan. In both instances the mixture ran out of the pan and into the oven. What other size pan can you recommend?
I make this subbing mild green chilies Into the corn bread mix, and cheddar jack on top. It’s killer!
