This gluten-free Flemings Creamed Corn recipe uses corn, onions, jalapeños, and cheese and cooks up quickly on the stovetop for a delightfully spicy (but not too spicy) side dish.
This Fleming’s Steakhouse-inspired side dish: Flemings Creamed Corn recipe is bold and spicy and perfect alongside your favorite roasted or grilled meat.
It’s definitely not like the creamed corn you’d find in a can. This version uses either fresh or frozen corn that’s cooked in a thick creamy, rich cheese sauce that’s laced with both jalapeños and green chilis and spice.
It’s cooked on the stovetop, although you can bake it for a richer, cheesier version.
But it’s not just for weeknights. In fact, Flemings Creamed Corn is a perfect side dish for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner. Just double (or triple) the recipe for larger crowds.

How to Make Flemings Creamed Corn Recipe
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.
Make 2 Ways: On Stove or in Oven
You can finish up this dish on the stove or in the oven. If you’ve got time, just scoop the creamed corn into a greased gratin-like dish, add a touch more cheese on top and then 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 and serve.
Or, if you’re in a pinch for time and need this recipe for Flemings Creamed Corn fast, finish it up on the stovetop 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!
