onion, garlic, bell pepper, sweet potato, jalapeno. Cook until
softened (about 7 minutes). Add tomatoes, chili powder, cumin, red
pepper, salt and pepper. Stir well. Add barbecue sauce, chicken
broth, black beans, and corn. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and allow
to simmer, partially covered for 40 minutes. If chili is too thick
add water. If its too thin let it sit on the heat longer.
For the Cornbread Topping:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Combine cornmeal, flour, sugar,
baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Combine oil, egg, and milk
in small bowl; mix well. Add milk mixture to flour mixture; stir
just until blended. Assembly: Pour chili into a deep glass dish 3/4
of the way up. Spoon cornbread mixture on top (you won't be using it
all). Remember, it rises quite a bit so leave enough depth in the
dish. Sprinkle with cheddar cheese. bake for 20 minutes or until
cornbread topping is browned. If cheese is browning too fast, cover
with foil.
