EASIEST CREAMED CORN RECIPE
This is the perfect side dish for Thanksgiving dinner, or any time you’re entertaining a crowd. It takes up zero oven space, can be made in just minutes and tastes indulgent and fancy. Here’s all you need to do:
- Fry up some bacon. You’ll want to make sure to use regular bacon and not thick. The key to this recipe is the grease to flour ratio and if there’s too much fat from the bacon it’ll throw off that balance. So save your thick bacon for breakfast tomorrow and use regular.
- Add diced jalapeno. I love using a fresh jalapeno (make sure to scrape out the seeds, that’s where all the heat lives) but you can use a can of diced jalapenos too!
- Mix in your flour. Flour mixed with the bacon grease will create the most perfect roux and will act as a thickening agent for this creamy dish.
- Next comes the Horizon Whole Milk and Horizon Heavy Cream. Now is not the time to worry about calories, friends. Use WHOLE milk and save the skim or 1% for your cereal. Trust me, you will not be sorry!
- Add whole kernal, frozen corn. The frozen corn will thaw in no time and will stay nice and crisp in the creamy mixture.
- Salt and Pepper it up! Season it to taste and serve it nice and warm. You will receive accolades like you never have before!
