Crispy Air Fryer Corn Ribs with Mexican Flair
Ingredients
  • 2 ears fresh corn, husked
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon Mexican-style hot sauce (such as Valentina®)
  • 2 tablespoons crumbled cotija cheese
  • 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
Instructions
1
First, preheat the air fryer to a high temperature of 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2
Next, take an ear of corn and place it on a stable surface. Cut the ear in half lengthwise, then cut each half in half again to create 8 separate "ribs".
3
Then, combine olive oil, chili powder, garlic powder, and black pepper in a small bowl. Mix until the ingredients are fully incorporated.
4
After that, brush the mixture onto both sides of each rib. Place the ribs in the air fryer basket.
5
While the corn is cooking, mix together mayonnaise, lime juice, and hot sauce in a separate small bowl. Ensure the ingredients are fully combined.
6
Once the corn is done, remove it from the air fryer and transfer it to a serving plate.

Finally, drizzle the mayonnaise-lime-hot sauce mixture over the corn ribs. Top with cotija cheese and sprinkle with cilantro.
