Dixieland Shortcake image

Comfort food at it's best. My grandmother used to make this when I was a little girl. The shortcake is actually cornbread and the filling is saucy chicken.She never added the peppers, but I added them for flavor and color. A side of greens goes great with this. Brings back a lot of memories, so I thought I's share.
