Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Start by husking and rinsing four ears of fresh corn. Cut each cob into quarters, creating a total of 16 riblets.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of softened cream cheese, ½ tablespoon of garlic powder, and ¼ cup of finely chopped fresh parsley. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  3. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (204°C) for about 5 minutes.
  4. Generously brush the creamy coating onto each corn rib, ensuring they are fully coated.
  5. Arrange the coated corn ribs in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 8 minutes, flipping them halfway through.
  6. While the corn ribs are air frying, whisk together 1 cup of mayonnaise, ½ tablespoon of ground chili, and ½ tablespoon of Tabasco sauce in a separate bowl.
  7. After the corn ribs are done, remove them from the air fryer and arrange on a serving plate. Drizzle with spicy mayo and garnish with sliced jalapeños and lime wedges.
