How to Make Flemings Creamed Corn Recipe
When you want a side dish that is quick and easy, a little spicy and ohhhh so cheesy, then you love this recipe for Flemings Creamed Corn.
Occasionally my husband and I will steel away for an evening dinner at Fleming’s Steakhouse and Wine Bar to celebrate a special occasion like a birthday or anniversary.
I love their small plates and especially their side dishes, one of which, is my ultimate favorite: Creamed Corn.
Now I’ve checked to see if Flemings still offers this side dish and sadly they don’t. That is why I decided to give this recipe a shot at home. I know my family loves the spiciness of jalapeños and rich cheesy sauce, but they also love, love, love corn.
Flemings Creamed Corn is a perfect side dish for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner. Just double the recipe for larger crowds.
The recipe itself is quite simple: corn, onions, green chilis, jalapeños and cheese–plenty of cheese, please! The ingredient that makes the dish is corn meal. It acts not only as a thickener but it also gives this recipe a deeper corn flavor.

You can finished up this dish on the stove or in the oven. For me, if I’ve got time, I’ll scoop the creamed corn into a gratin-like dish, add a touch more cheese on top and then I’ll pop it in a preheated oven at 400 degrees F. It only takes a couple of minutes for the cheese to melt and get slightly golden brown. That’s when it’s ready to take out of the oven.
If you love corn as much as I do, check out this super recipe for Summer Succotash Salad. You can use either fresh or frozen corn and lots of fresh veggies. Want to spice it up a bit? Add some finely diced jalapeños. This corn-inspired salad is perfect as a side dish or an entrée, when paired with chopped chicken, beef or pork.
Or, if I’m in a pinch for time and need my Flemings Creamed Corn fast, I’ll finish up with the stovetop version and serve it up nice and hot.
Either way, this is a great corn dish that I hope your family will love as much as mine. Enjoy!
