    About This Recipe

    These baked pork chops smothered in creamed corn are my version of one my mom used to make. As a child, I loved this dish! Mom's version was true homestyle, comfort food, and although I loved her version, my palate has changed with time. Now, I crave a little more seasoning oomph... and Italian herbs are a perfect choice.

    This easy-to-make, oven-baked main dish is so comforting and so simple that you will want to add it to your rotation of favorite weeknight dinners! It has only 8 ingredients and 7 easy steps, which is another reason why this is one of my all-time favorite dishes to make... as well as to eat!

    Ingredient Notes

    Ingredients, clockwise from top right: creamed corn, fresh rosemary, pork chops, seasoned salt, black pepper, Italian herb seasoning, frozen corn, safflower oil.
    • Cream Style Sweet Corn - Also called creamed corn, cream style sweet corn is sold in cans and contains kernels of sweet corn in a creamy, corn sauce. Alternatively, you can make your own creamed corn from scratch.
    • Sweet Corn Kernels - Either fresh or frozen kernels of sweet corn are good in this recipe. If in season, fresh corn kernels cut from the cob are always better than frozen. But frozen does not require cutting the kernels from the cob and is always available year-round.
    • Pork Loin Chops - I prefer the loin cut of pork chops, but any cut will work for this recipe.
    • Seasoned Salt - Seasoned salt is a blend of salt, spices, herbs, aromatics, and sometimes sugar. A typical blend will contain table salt, turmeric, ground celery seed, paprika, onion, and garlic
    • Black Pepper - Black pepper, or peppercorns, have a spicy, fruity, slightly pungent, and flowery aroma. Whenever possible use freshly ground black pepper. It will be more complex in flavor, more flowery and less spicy.
    • Italian Herb Seasoning - Italian Herb Seasoning generally contains the following herbs: oregano, basil, thyme, marjoram, and rosemary. Select an Italian Herb blend that only contains herbs and does not include salt, pepper, garlic, or onion.
    • Safflower Oil - Safflower oil is a neutral flavored oil with a high smoking point, which makes it perfect for quickly searing meats.
    • Fresh Rosemary -  Rosemary has a strong aroma best described as a blend of juniper, Christmas tree, and mint. The taste is distinctly astringent and bitter. This herb is commonly used in Mediterranean cuisines.

    How to Make Pork Chops in Creamed Corn

    Step One - Preheat oven to 375°F/191°C.

    A medium sized bowl contains creamed corn and additional corn kernels ready to be mixed together with a rubber spatula.

    Step Two - In a medium sized bowl mix together the cream style corn and the thawed sweet corn kernels. Set aside for later.

    Beautiful pink, bone-in loin pork chops are generously seasoned with salt, black pepper, and Italian herbs.

    Step Three - Dry the pork chops completely and season both sides of the chops with the seasoned salt, fresh ground pepper, and Italian herb seasoning.

    Step Four - Heat the safflower oil in a medium frying pan over medium heat until the oil is shimmering. Add the seasoned pork chops two at a time to the skillet and fry them on each side until lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the browned chops to a plate. Repeat with the remaining two chops.

    Step Five - Spoon ⅔ of the corn mixture into a 13 x 9” baking dish. Layer the browned pork chops on top of the corn mixture and spoon the remaining corn mixture on top of the pork chops. Tuck sprigs of rosemary around the chops.

    Step Six- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 1 hour, or until the chops are tender and the creamed corn is hot and bubbling.

    Step Seven - Remove the dish from the oven, garnish with additional fresh sprigs of rosemary. Serve & Enjoy!
