Ingredients
Scale
- 4 ears fresh corn, shucked
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Cut each ear of corn lengthwise into four equal wedges, creating ‘ribs’. You will have 16 pieces total.
- In a medium bowl, toss the corn ribs with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (195°C).
- Place the seasoned corn ribs in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Do not overcrowd; work in batches if necessary.
- Air fry for 8 minutes.
- Carefully remove the basket, toss the corn ribs, and sprinkle half of the Parmesan cheese over them.
- Return the basket to the air fryer and cook for another 4 to 6 minutes, or until the corn is tender and the edges are crispy.
- Remove the corn ribs, toss them with the remaining Parmesan cheese, and garnish with fresh parsley before serving hot.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, ensure the corn ribs are dry before tossing them with oil.
- If you prefer a stronger garlic flavor, use 1/2 teaspoon of garlic salt instead of plain salt and garlic powder.
- Adjust air fryer temperature to 400°F (200°C) for the last 2 minutes if you desire deeper browning.
