How to Make Air Fryer Mexican Street Corn

Ingredients

Be sure to see the recipe card below for the full listing of ingredients, instructions, notes, and estimated nutritional information.

For this recipe you’ll need the following ingredients:

Corn on the cob – I love to use fresh corn on the cob when available. You can also use frozen corn that has been thawed.
Cheese – Use crumbled Cotija or Feta cheese
Seasonings : chili powder and Stone House Seasoning
Cilantro – chopped fresh is best to use in this recipe
Lime – cut into wedges

Step-by-Step Instructions

Here’s how I make it.

Start with corn on the cob. If it is fresh, be sure to clean and silk the corn. If it is frozen, be sure that it is thawed.

Place the corn into the air fryer basket and cook for 10 minutes at 390 degrees.

Then, I sprinkle the cheese onto my corn and cook for five more minutes.

Once done, I remove it from the air fryer and top with chili powder and Stone House Seasoning, along with fresh cilantro. I serve it with fresh lime wedges.

You may know that traditional Mexican Street Corn also has a thick coating of mayonnaise on the corn. You can definitely add that if you’d like, I just wanted to reduce the unnecessary calories and fat from this recipe. If you want to add, I would rub each ear of corn with 1/4 cup of mayonnaise before sprinkling it with the cheese and cooking for the final five minutes.
