This meal would work great with leftover chicken or even a rotisserie chicken. Serve warm with a side of vegetables and pasta or rice for a delicious meal.

The creamy chicken filling is made with cooked and diced chicken, two cans of cream of chicken soup, and milk. Spread the filling out into a large greased baking dish and top with shredded cheddar cheese. For the homemade cornbread mixture, you can either prepare it yourself, or you can use a premade cornbread mix to save on time. If using a premade version, prepare the batter according to the package directions. Pour the cornbread batter over the chicken and cheese and bake until the cornbread is golden browned and the cheese has fully melted.
