Author Notes
This is a skillet cornbread inspired by Cherry Creek Grill's in Denver to die for jalapeno cornbread. I wanted to enhance my cornbread with the flavors of green onion and garlic. Since I have lots of garlic chives growing rampant in my herb garden this was a good reason to use them! In addition I serve mine with an ancho chile green onion butter. For some reason this really balances the sweetness of the cornbread and brings out the flavor of the green onions. —This Is How I Cook
