Recipe
Step 1:
Heat oven to 475°F.
Step 2:
Cut the tops and bottoms of each cob so that both ends are flat. Stand the corn vertically, with the thicker end on a cutting board. Position a sharp knife in the middle of the top of the ear of corn and carefully divide the corn in half.
Step 3:
Repeat this process one more time, cutting the two halves in half. Repeat this step for the second ear of corn. You will end up with 8 “ribs” total.
Step 4:
To a small bowl add the olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, chili powder, and salt and mix to combine.
Step 5:
Brush the olive oil mixture over each “rib” of corn. Place on a baking sheet and put into the oven for about 20 minutes, or until the corn ribs begin to curl and appear slightly charred.
Step 6:
While the corn is in the oven, prepare the chipotle sauce. Add the chipotle sauce ingredients in the order listed to a small food processor and blend until smooth. Taste and add additional salt as needed. Add the other half of the chipotle pepper if a spicier sauce is desired.
Step 7:
Transfer the corn ribs to a plate. Transfer the sauce to a piping bag, cut off the tip of one corner, and drizzle over the top of the corn. Alternatively, the sauce can be transferred to a small dish and served on the side. Top with cheese and cilantro leaves and enjoy.
