Instructions

🎙️ Cook with voice coach

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet, brown the Ground beef over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute more.
Combine all Sauce ingredients in the skillet with the beef mixture. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, milk, melted butter, cheddar cheese, and salt until smooth.
Pour the beef mixture into a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Pour the cornmeal mixture evenly over the beef mixture.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and set.
