Barbecue Chicken with Cornbread Topper

Submitted by Jessica Guinan
From 100 Best Chicken Recipes

1 1/2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breast
1 can (15 oz) red beans, drained & rinsed (I like light red kidney beans for this)
1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
1 cup chopped green bell pepper
1/2 cup barbecue sauce (I use Famous Dave's Rich & Sassy sauce)
1 envelope cornbread mix & ingredients

Cut chicken into small cubes. Heat non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add chicken; cook and stir 5 minutes or until no longer pink. Combine chicken, beans, tomato sauce, bell pepper & barbecue sauce in an 8x8 square baking pan. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Loosely cover chicken mixture with plastic wrap or waxed paper & microwave on MEDIUM HIGH 8 minutes or until heated through, stirring after 4 minutes. (You could also combine everything in your skillet & warm up.) While chicken mixture is heating up, prepare cornbread mix according to package directions. Spoon batter over chicken mixture. Bake 15 to 18 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center of cornbread layer comes out clean.
