Corn Ribs

Speckled with seasonings and darkly charred on the grill, corn ribs really do resemble ribs—and they're packed with buttery, cheesy flavor.

Ingredients :
  • 4 medium ears sweet corn
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
  • 2 lime wedges
Directions :
  1. Preheat grill to 375°. In a large saucepot, bring a quart of water to boil. Add corn, cook for 5 minutes. Remove to cutting board; cool.
  2. Cut each corn cob in half widthwise; slice each half into quarters. Place in a large bowl and toss in olive oil.
  3. In a small bowl mix together salt, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, paprika and cayenne. Sprinkle over corn and toss until evenly coated.
  4. Grill each corn rib kernel-side down, until corn begins to char, 4-5 minutes. Place corn ribs in a large bowl; drizzle with melted butter and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and cilantro. Toss to coat; serve with lime wedges and if desired, additional Parmesan cheese.
