Instructions:

  1. Wash your hands!

  5. Bake for 20-30 minutes.
  6. While corn is baking, toss the chicken in the remaining 1 tablespoon taco seasoning.
  7. When corn is done – it will be just barely set and golden brown – pierce the entire surface liberally with a fork (it might stick a little bit to the fork).
  8. Pour enchilada sauce over top.
  9. Top with chicken; sprinkle with cheese.
  10. Bake at 400° for 15 minutes or until cheese melts.
  11. Remove from oven; let stand 5 minutes.
