AIR FRYER CORN RIBS

This is my fun take on air-fried elote ribs. Cutting the corn this way causes them to curl up in the shape of ribs once cooked. This also makes the corn a lot easier to handle and eat, not to mention a lot less messy.

Time 25m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 ears fresh corn, husked
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon chili powder
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ cup mayonnaise
2 teaspoons lime juice
1 teaspoon Mexican-style hot sauce (such as Valentina®)
2 tablespoons crumbled cotija cheese
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Place an ear of corn on a cutting board and cut in half lengthwise. Cut each half in half lengthwise. Repeat with remaining ear of corn. You should have 8 "ribs" total.
  • Whisk olive oil, chili powder, garlic powder, and black pepper together in a bowl until smooth. Brush onto both sides of each rib and place in the air fryer basket.
  • Air fry for 12 minutes, flipping halfway through the cook time.
  • Meanwhile whisk mayonnaise, lime juice, and hot sauce together until thoroughly combined.
  • Transfer corn ribs to a serving plate. Drizzle sauce over the ribs and top with cotija cheese and cilantro.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use a good quality air fryer. A larger air fryer will allow you to cook more ribs at once.
  • Make sure the ribs are evenly coated with your desired seasonings. This will help them to cook evenly and develop a delicious flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket. This will prevent the ribs from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the ribs in batches if necessary. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to cook the ribs in batches.
  • Check the ribs regularly to ensure that they are cooking properly. The cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the ribs and the desired level of doneness.
  • Once the ribs are cooked, let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.

Conclusion:

Air fryer ribs are a delicious and easy way to enjoy this classic dish. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have perfectly cooked ribs that are fall-off-the-bone tender. So next time you're craving ribs, give this air fryer recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
