Ninja Foodi Grill Frozen Corn On The Cob
Grilling frozen corn on the cob can be tricky, but with the Ninja Foodi Grill, it's a breeze. This innovative appliance allows you to grill, air fry, bake, and roast all in one convenient device. In this article, we'll share our top tips and tricks for cooking perfect corn on the cob in your Ninja Foodi Grill.
Why Grill Frozen Corn on the Cob?
While fresh corn on the cob is delicious, frozen corn on the cob is a great option when fresh is not available. Frozen corn is usually picked at its peak freshness and frozen right away, which means it can sometimes be even better quality than fresh corn that has been sitting on the shelf for a few days. Plus, it's available year-round and is usually more affordable than fresh corn.
Grilling frozen corn on the cob is also a great way to infuse it with smoky, charred flavor that can't be achieved with boiling or microwaving. It's a quick and easy way to create a delicious side dish for any meal.
Preparing Your Corn on the Cob
Before you start grilling your corn on the cob, there are a few things you need to do to prepare it. Start by thawing your frozen corn on the cob in the refrigerator for several hours. This will ensure that it cooks evenly and thoroughly. You can also thaw it by placing it in a bowl of cold water for about an hour.
Once your corn is thawed, remove the husks and silk from each cob. You can do this by pulling the husks down towards the bottom of the cob and stripping away the silk. Rinse the corn under cold water to remove any remaining silk or debris.
Grilling Your Frozen Corn on the Cob
Now it's time to get grilling. Preheat your Ninja Foodi Grill to 400°F. If your grill has a grill grate insert, place it on the grill before preheating. This will help prevent the corn from sticking to the grill.
Once your grill is preheated, spray the corn with cooking spray or brush it with melted butter. Season it with salt and pepper or any other seasoning of your choice. Place the corn on the grill and close the lid. Grill for 10-15 minutes, turning the corn every 5 minutes to ensure even cooking.
When your corn is fully cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. You can serve it with additional butter, seasoning, or even a sprinkle of parmesan cheese for added flavor.
