1 pkg. (7.5-8.5 oz) corn muffin mix (or you can make from scratch using 1 cup yellow corn meal and 1 Tbsp. sugar)
1 cup (8 oz.) sour cream, divided
¼ cup all purpose flour
2 Tbsp. Chipotle Seasoning (I used Mrs. Dash)
1 small red bell pepper, finely diced
1-2 green onions with tops (about ½ cup thinly sliced)
1 ½ cups finely diced cooked chicken
Additional sour cream (optional)
Snipped fresh cilantro (optional)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine cheese, muffin mix, ¼ cup of the sour cream, flour and 1 Tbsp. of the Chipotle Seasoning; mix to form a thick batter.
Spray wells of the mini muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray. Divide batter evenly among the wells. Bake 14-16 minutes.
Meanwhile, place the red pepper and onions in a nonstick skillet and cook 2-3 minutes until pepper begins to soften. Add chicken and remaining 1 Tbsp. Chipotle seasoning to pan; cook and stir 2-3 minutes or until heated through. Add remaining ¼ cup sour cream. Mix well.
Remove muffins from the oven. Immediately press the tops of the muffins down to form little cups. (If you have a mini-tart shaper, this works well). Cool in the pan 3 minutes. Carefully remove cups to serving platter. Divide chicken mixture evenly among the cups. Top with additional sour cream and sprinkle with the cilantro, if desired.
