Step 1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Prepare cornbread base by combining corn muffin mix, sour cream, creamed corn, and one egg. Pour into large cast iron skillet (we used an 11-inch skillet).
Step 3
Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown on top. Let cool in pan. In the meantime, prep enchilada base.
Step 4
In a separate skillet, sauté onions over medium heat. Season with salt and pepper to taste. When translucent, add garlic. Cook until fragrant.
Step 5
Add ground beef, stirring to break up the meat, and add: cumin, chili powder, salt, and cayenne.
Step 6
Add the jalapeños and the green chilis. Cook for a few minutes until soft. Add 1/2 cup each of the cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses.
Step 7
Remove skillet from stovetop to drain excess fat.
Step 8
Poke surface of cornbread base with the handle of a wooden spoon. Pour enchilada sauce over the cornbread, making sure to cover the entire surface.
Step 9
Spread meat mixture over cornbread base. Top with leftover 1/2 cups of the cheeses. Bake for about 20 minutes. To brown the cheese for a crisper crust, broil for five minutes.
Step 10
Top with chopped cilantro. Serve immediately, while warm!
