Ingredients
4 medium corn on the cob
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp garlic powder
0.5 tsp chili powder
0.5 tsp sea salt
Instructions
Remove all husks and silk from the corn cobs and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Place the corn upright on a stable cutting board to slice the cob vertically into quarters using a sharp heavy-duty chef knife.
Whisk the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, chili powder, and salt in a small bowl until fully combined.
Brush the seasoning mixture evenly across all sides of each corn rib to ensure full coverage.
Arrange the corn ribs in the air fryer basket in a single layer without overlapping pieces.
Cook the ribs at 380 degrees Fahrenheit for 12 minutes, turning them halfway through to ensure even browning.
Notes
Use a heavy-duty knife to cut the corn safely by resting the flat side of the cob against the cutting board. Ensure the corn is completely dry before adding oil to allow the spices to adhere firmly. Do not crowd the air fryer basket to maintain proper airflow.
