Air Fryer Corn Ribs

Ingredients

• •4 corn cobs, husked
• •2 tbsp olive oil
• •1 tsp smoked paprika
• •1/2 tsp garlic powder
• •1/2 tsp ground cumin
• •1/2 tsp kosher salt
• •1 lime, cut into wedges
• •1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated
• •2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped

Directions

1. 1Stand each corn cob upright on a stable cutting board and carefully cut lengthwise into quarters using a heavy, sharp knife.
2. 2Toss the corn ribs with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cumin, and salt until every cut surface is coated.
3. 3Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (205°C) for 3 minutes before adding the seasoned corn ribs.
4. 4Arrange half the corn ribs in one layer and air fry 10–12 minutes, turning after 6 minutes, until browned and curling.
5. 5Repeat with the remaining corn ribs; do not stack them because the cut sides need direct airflow.
6. 6Finish the hot corn with lime, Parmesan, and cilantro before serving.

💡 The hardest part is cutting the cobs safely; use fresh, tender corn and a stable board, and never force a dull knife through the core.
