Easy tamale pie with pulled pork.

Ingredients

  • 1.5 teaspoons butter , or as needed
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 small onion , minced
  • 2 cloves garlic , minced
  • 2.5 cups prepared pulled pork
  • 1 can whole kernel corn , 15.25 ounce
  • 1 can diced tomatoes and green chiles , 10 ounce
  • 1 can diced green chiles , 4.5 ounce
  • 1 package taco seasoning , 1.25 ounce
  • 2 boxes cornbread mix , 6 ounce
  • 1.33 cups milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 package shredded Mexican-blend cheese , 8 ounce

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a large casserole dish with butter.

  2. 2

    Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat; stir in onion. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in pulled pork and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Discard about 1/2 of the liquid from the corn and diced tomatoes with chiles; add remaining corn, diced tomatoes with chiles, and liquid to the pork mixture. Stir in diced green chiles and taco seasoning; cook until desired consistency and heated through, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.

  4. 4

    Whisk cornbread mix, milk, and eggs together in a bowl. Pour a little more than 1/2 of the batter into the prepared casserole dish.

  5. 5

    Bake cornbread in the preheated oven for 6 to 7 minutes. Remove from the oven and pour pork mixture on top. Sprinkle with Mexican cheese, then pour the remaining cornbread batter over top.

  6. 6

    Bake until cornbread topping is golden brown, 30 to 45 minutes.
