Meatlovers! If using protein, cook in a medium non-stick pan over medium heat with 1 tsp. olive oil.
-
If using antibiotic free chicken, pat dry. Cook until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes per side.
-
If using filets mignon, pat dry. Cook until steak reaches desired doneness, or 4-6 minutes per side for medium/medium-well. Rest, 3 minutes. Steak thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner steak, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.

Drain beans in a colander/strainer.
Peel, trim, and cut carrot into 1/4" slices on an angle.Coarsely chop pepper and onion mix.Trim and thinly slice green onions, keeping white and green portions separate.Stem jalapeño, halve, seed, remove ribs, and mince. Retain seeds for more spice. Wash hands and cutting board after working with jalapeño. -
2 Make the Topping
Set aside 2 Tbsp. corn muffin mix.
In a mixing bowl, combine remaining corn muffin mix, 1/2 cup water, half the cheese (reserve remaining for topping), and white portions of green onions.Stir mixture until combined and a thick, spreadable batter forms. If too thick, add additional water, 1 Tbsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached. Set aside. -
3 Start the Filling
Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil.
Add carrots, pepper and onion mix, Cajun seasoning (to taste), jalapeños (to taste), and 1/4 tsp. salt to hot pan. Stir occasionally until vegetables are tender, 4-6 minutes. -
