1 Prepare the Ingredients
Trim and thinly slice green onions on an angle, keeping white and green portions separate.
Stem poblano pepper, seed, and cut into 1/2" dice.Mince garlic. -
2 Make the Cornbread Batter
Set aside 2 Tbsp. cornbread mix. Combine remaining cornbread mix with 1/4 cup water, cheddar cheese, and green portions of green onions (reserve a pinch for garnish) in a large mixing bowl.
Stir, adding additional water 2 Tbsp. at a time, until fully combined and a thick, spreadable batter forms. -
3 Start the Filling
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
Add ground beef, poblano pepper, taco seasoning, garlic, white portions of green onions, and a pinch of pepper to hot pan. Stir occasionally until no pink remains on ground beef, 5-6 minutes. -
4 Finish the Filling
Add corn, Worchestershire, and reserved 2 Tbsp. cornbread mix to pan and cook until poblano softens, 1-2 minutes.
Add 1 cup water. Stir occasionally until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes. -
5 Bake the Pie
Transfer filling to prepared casserole dish. You may also use a cast iron skillet. Top filling with cornbread batter, using a spatula dipped in water or sprayed with cooking spray to smooth top. Don't worry if your cornbread layer is thin!
Bake in hot oven until cornbread is golden brown, 20-25 minutes.Rest at least 5 minutes to cool slightly and set.Serve family-style, garnishing with sour cream and reserved green portions of green onions. Bon appétit!
