Think of Corn Casserole with Cream Cheese as a mini casserole. While some make enough to feed the whole neighborhood, this recipe makes just enough sweet, creamy and corny goodness to serve as a side dish for a summery main such as grilled lemon chicken<\/a>, but it will be gone before you’ve had to endure too many revisits from the leftovers.<\/p>\n Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F. Grease a 3-cup baking dish. In a large bowl, combine the corn kernels, cream cheese, butter, green chiles, garlic, salt and pepper. Pour the mixture into the prepared dish.<\/p>\n Bake, uncovered, for 25 to 30 minutes or until bubbly around the edges. Stir before serving.<\/p>\n To store leftover corn casserole with cream cheese, let it cool completely, then refrigerate in an airtight container for up to three days.<\/p>\n Yes, you can freeze corn casserole with cream cheese, either before baking or after. To freeze it before baking, place the filled casserole dish on a level surface in the freezer and freeze it until it’s completely solid before wrapping and labeling it. Bake it from frozen at 350\u00b0, covered with foil, for 35 minutes, or until bubbly around the edges. To freeze after baking, wait until the casserole is completely cooled, then wrap and freeze it. Alternatively, pack individual servings in microwave-safe containers and microwave them to reheat them as needed.<\/p>\n If your ears of corn are very fresh you can just strip the kernels off of the ears using a serrated knife. If they’re a little starchy, blast them for a moment or two in the microwave\u00a0<\/a>to ensure that they soften enough during the baking time.<\/p>\n Canned green chiles are roasted and peeled Anaheim chiles. Instead of the canned or jarred variety, you can roast your own Anaheim or Italian frying peppers. Roasted and peeled poblanos are darker in color and have slightly more spice, but they will work as well. You can also use pickled jalape\u00f1os for a punchier dish.<\/p>\n This decadent side dish calls for a simple entree such as lemon chicken skewers<\/a> or a salad that’ll be ready in 30 minutes<\/a>, the same amount of time this casserole will be in the oven.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Corn casserole with cream cheese is a decadent side dish of sweet corn in a tangy, green chile-infused cream sauce.
