Mom’s Corny Pork Chops

  4.2 – 14 reviews  • Baked

This was a dish that my mother used to cook frequently and there was never any leftover. A simple baked dish that tastes wonderful with mashed potatoes and fresh bread.

Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 50 mins
Total Time: 1 hr
Servings: 4
Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  1. 3 tablespoons olive oil
  2. 3 cloves garlic, minced
  3. 4 (8 ounce) pork chops
  4. salt and ground black pepper to taste
  5. ¼ cup minced onion (Optional)
  6. ½ cup water (Optional)
  7. 1 (15 ounce) can cream-style corn

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, and stir in the garlic. Season chops with salt and black pepper. Pan fry until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Place the chops into the prepared baking dish, and scatter the onions over the chops.
  3. Pour water into the skillet, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Scrape up and dissolve all the juices and browned flavor bits from the skillet into the water. Pour the mixture over the pork chops. Spread creamed corn evenly over the pork chops.
  4. Bake the pork chops in the preheated oven until the pork is tender and no longer pink in the middle, about 45 minutes. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the center of a chop should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

I thought this was just ok. I was really excited to try it because I love creamed corn, however, once in the oven the corn turned incredibly soupy (yes, much soupier than it’s usual consistency) and I was disappointed that it was so thin. Husband thought it was just ok as well.

This was great! I did not have garlic, and instead of minced onion, I sliced a small onion and carmelized it and then added McCormick Grill Mates steak seasoning to the chops. Excellent! Next time I will try to have garlic on hand. Oh, no need to add water.

This was only okay. Really bland.

I made this last night and it was incredible. Not so much that it was really great tasting (which it was) but it was different and that made it even better.

Loved it, and so did my friends. Easy and yummy, and served with mashed potatoes and green salad.

I had no idea creamed corn would make such a nice gravy for the pork! left out the water and onions and we got a nice brownish sauce the consistency of gravy with little bits of corn in it, haha, very very easy supper. we had it with mashed potatoes, salad, and the other half of the can of corn (we only did 2 servings instead of 4) on the side. really nice! I’d make this again.

This was very good the pork chops was so tender. I put it in top of some smashed potatoes and pour gravy on top of it. It was a very good menu and my guest enjoyed it.

I used whole kernel sweet corn instead of cream style corn. And instead of water, I used the water that I drained from the can of corn. This came out delicious!!

The flavors on this are quite good together. I used a lil extra of onion and garlic, and the only extra spice I added was paprika. Overall it was really flavorful! My only complaint was that the chops were dry. Not sure if this was due to a long cook time or what. Either way, a recipe worth trying!! Try with rice and/or green beans!

Decent
