Ingredients
Method
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
- Heat a large skillet like a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add in the ground beef and onion, breaking the beef apart and cooking until no longer pink, and onion begins to soften. Add a little salt and pepper to season the meat. Drain any fat that has accumulated in the pan.
- To the meat, add the rest of the filling ingredients and spices. Cook until the liquid starts to bubble. Turn off the heat and set aside.
- In a medium-size bowl combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Add a beaten egg, milk and butter to the flour mixture and mix well to form a soft dough.
- If your skillet is oven-proof, pour the cornbread mixture over the taco filling and then top with the cheese. If you're skillet isn't ovenproof, pour the mixture into a 9" pie pan, and top with the cornbread mixture and the cheese.
- Bake for 45 minutes, or until the cheese is flecked with brown and the filling begins to bubble out of the sides.
- Serve immediately and top with your favorite taco toppings. We like to top ours with sour cream, avocado, tomatoes, shredded lettuce, and hot sauce.
Notes
Ground Turkey can be substituted for the beef in this recipe.
