This was cooked and baked in a cast iron skillet. You could use a regular skillet to cook and then transfer into a pie plate instead.
In a skillet, begin to brown ground beef. Add chopped onion and bell pepper, continue to saute until meat is no longer pink and vegetables are tender. (Drain any excess grease).
Stir in minced garlic, chipotle powder and cumin. Add diced tomatoes, green chilies and canned corn to the skillet. Stir everything together, continue to simmer for another 2-3 minutes.
Remove skillet from heat. (If you are not using a cast iron skillet, transfer the skillet ingredients to a 9x9 baking dish, or pie plate). Top with shredded cheddar cheese.
In a separate bowl, whisk together Jiffy corn muffin mix with milk and egg. Pour the batter over the skillet ingredients. Bake at 375 degrees F. for approximately 20 minutes or until the batter is golden brown and no longer wet.
Remove and allow to sit for 10 minutes before serving.
