Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Season Chicken with salt and pepper. Cut into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
In a large saucepan, melt Butter. Whisk in Flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to create a roux.
Gradually whisk in Chicken broth until smooth. Bring to a simmer, then stir in Heavy cream and Cheddar cheese. Season with Garlic powder.
In a separate bowl, combine all Filling ingredients.
Add Chicken to the Sauce and stir to combine.
Pour the chicken mixture into the prepared baking dish.
In a separate bowl, combine all Cornbread ingredients. Mix until just combined (do not overmix).
Spread the Cornbread batter evenly over the chicken mixture.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the cornbread is golden brown and the casserole is bubbly.
