Air fryer corn ribs are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or side dish that mimic the shape of traditional ribs. Here’s a simple recipe to make air fryer corn ribs:
Ingredients:
- 2-3 ears of corn
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Optional toppings: chopped fresh cilantro, grated Parmesan cheese, lime wedges
Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- Shuck the ears of corn and cut them into 2-inch sections, resembling rib shapes. You should get about 2-3 “ribs” per ear of corn.
- In a bowl, combine olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
- Brush the corn ribs generously with the spice mixture, making sure to coat all sides.
- Place the corn ribs in a single layer in the air fryer basket. You may need to work in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
- Cook the corn ribs in the air fryer for about 10-12 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time. The corn should become tender and slightly charred.
- Once the corn ribs are cooked, remove them from the air fryer and let them cool for a few minutes.
- Serve the air fryer corn ribs as they are or garnish with your desired toppings, such as chopped fresh cilantro, grated Parmesan cheese, or a squeeze of lime juice.
Enjoy your crispy and flavorful air fryer corn ribs!
Note: Cooking times may vary depending on the model of your air fryer, so keep an eye on the corn ribs as they cook to avoid overcooking or burning. Adjust the cooking time as needed.
