Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- Remove the husks and silk from the corn on the cob, ensuring each ear is clean and ready for seasoning.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until well combined.
- Brush each ear of corn generously with the olive oil mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Place the seasoned corn in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking.
- Air fry for 12-15 minutes, flipping the corn halfway through the cooking time, until the corn is tender and lightly charred.
- Once done, remove the corn from the air fryer and let it cool for a few minutes.
- For an extra touch of flavor, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley before serving. Pair with lime wedges for a refreshing twist.
Tips
- For a spicy kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the seasoning mix.
- Try adding a drizzle of melted butter over the corn just before serving for extra richness.
- Experiment with different seasonings like chili powder or Italian herbs to customize the flavor.
