Creamed Corn Rice Slice Ingredients
- 1 cup of long-grain rice
- 2 cups of water
- 1 can (15 oz) of creamed corn
- 1 cup of grated cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup of milk
- 3 large eggs
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 1 bell pepper, finely chopped (optional)
- 1 tablespoon of butter or margarine
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon of paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon of dried thyme
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
How to Make Creamed Corn Rice Slice
- Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
- In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil.
- Add the rice and a pinch of salt. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed.
- Remove from heat and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked rice, creamed corn, grated cheddar cheese, milk, eggs, chopped onion, and bell pepper (if using).
- Add the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and dried thyme. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
- Dot the top with small pieces of butter or margarine.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the mixture is set.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
- Cut the creamed corn rice slice into squares or rectangles and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
- Serve warm as a main dish or a side. It pairs wonderfully with a green salad or roasted vegetables.
Recipe Tips
- Using long-grain rice helps keep the slice from becoming too sticky. You can also use jasmine or basmati rice for a slightly different flavor.
- Feel free to experiment with different cheeses. Mozzarella, Monterey Jack, or even a mix of your favorite cheeses can add a unique touch.
- Incorporate other vegetables like peas, corn kernels, or even diced tomatoes to add more color and nutrients.
- For a spicier version, add a diced jalapeño or a pinch of cayenne pepper to the mixture.
- This dish can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator. Simply reheat in the oven before serving.
- Creamed Corn Rice Slice can be frozen. Wrap individual slices in plastic wrap and aluminum foil, and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before reheating.
