Ingredients
  

Main
  • 4 ears of corn
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh herbs for garnish optional

Equipment

  • Air fryer
  • Sharp knife
  • Cutting board
  • Bowl for seasoning
  • Brush for oil

Method
 

  1. Start by removing the husks and silk from the corn.
  2. Stand each ear of corn upright on the cutting board and slice down the sides to create 'ribs.'
  3. In a bowl, mix olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  4. Brush the seasoning mixture generously over the corn ribs.
  5. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  6. Place the corn ribs in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
  7. Cook for 12 to 15 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  8. Once done, remove the corn ribs and let them cool slightly.
  9. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired, then serve warm.

Notes

These corn ribs are fantastic on their own, but can be paired with grilled chicken or steak, spicy dipping sauces, or fresh salads.
