How to Make Steakhouse Creamed Corn
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready for the delicious transformation ahead.
- Sauté the corn: In a large skillet, melt your butter over medium heat. Add the fresh corn and cook until tender, approximately 5-7 minutes.
- Create the roux: Stir in the flour and cook for about 1 minute to create a thick base.
- Add the cream: Gradually pour in the heavy cream while stirring continuously until the mixture thickens slightly, about 3-4 minutes.
- Incorporate cheese and seasonings: Stir in the shredded cheese and seasonings until fully melted and combined.
- Transfer and bake: Pour the mixture into a baking dish, top with more cheese, and bake for 30 minutes until golden.
- Cool and serve: Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving for enhanced flavors.
Notes
Serving with chopped chives on top adds a fresh finish. For best results, let the creamed corn rest before serving to enhance flavors.
