Ingredienser
  

  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup plain breadcrumbs
  • 1/3 cup barbecue sauce, divided
  • 1/4 cup finely grated cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Heat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin pan.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, one egg, breadcrumbs, 2 tablespoons of the barbecue sauce, cheddar, onion powder, garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Mix gently until combined.
  • Divide the chicken mixture evenly among 8 muffin cups. Press it into the cups without packing it too firmly. Brush the tops with the remaining barbecue sauce.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. In another bowl, whisk the second egg with the milk and melted butter. Stir the wet mixture into the dry ingredients just until no dry patches remain.
  • Spoon the cornbread batter over the chicken mixture, dividing it evenly among the filled cups. Leave a little room at the top for the batter to rise.
  • Bake until the cornbread tops are golden and the chicken is cooked through, about 25 to 30 minutes. The center of a muffin should reach 165°F on an instant-read thermometer.
  • Let the muffins rest in the pan for 5 minutes, then loosen the edges and lift them out. Serve warm.

Use a mild barbecue sauce for a gentler flavor, or choose a tangier sauce if your family likes more zip. For even portions, divide the chicken mixture among the cups first, then add the cornbread batter. Let the muffins rest before removing them so the cornbread crust stays intact.
