Description
This air fryer fish recipe results in perfectly crispy and flavorful fish fillets in just a fraction of the time compared to traditional frying methods.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 fish fillets (e.g., cod, tilapia, or salmon)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice.
- Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and brush the seasoning mixture evenly over both sides of the fillets.
- Place the seasoned fish fillets in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they do not overlap.
- Cook the fish in the air fryer for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Remove the fish from the air fryer and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
- Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve with lemon wedges.
Notes
- Cooking times may vary based on the thickness of the fish fillets. Adjust accordingly.
- For extra crunch, consider coating the fish with breadcrumbs or panko before air frying.
