🧈 Butter or olive oil
🧄 2 cloves garlic, minced
🥛 1/2 cup heavy cream
🍗 1/4 cup chicken broth
🥄 A little mayonnaise
🧀 Grated Parmesan cheese
🌶️ Red pepper flakes to taste
🌿 Thyme to taste
🧄 Garlic powder to taste
🍋 Lemon pepper to taste
🍋 Squeeze of lemon juice
🌿 A sprinkle of tropical Sazon (or chili powder) for a razzle dazzle and tropical taste
🌿 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

1- Prepare the Corn:

Husk the corn and cut each ear into 3-4 inch chunks.
Ensure the pieces are uniform for even cooking.

2- Air Fry the Corn:

Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
Place the corn chunks in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
Cook for 10-12 minutes, turning halfway through, until they are golden brown and slightly charred.

3- Heat the Pan:

In a large skillet, heat the butter or olive oil over medium heat.
Wait until the mixture is hot.

4- Add the Garlic:

Add the minced garlic to the pan.
Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.

5- Make the Sauce:

Reduce the heat to low and pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth.
Add a little mayonnaise and stir to combine.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted.
Season with red pepper flakes, thyme, garlic powder, lemon pepper, a squeeze of lemon juice, and tropical Sazon (or chili powder).

6- Combine with Corn:

Add the air-fried corn chunks to the skillet.
Let the mixture simmer gently for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly and the corn is tender.

7- Serve:

Remove from heat and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
Serve warm as a delicious side dish.
