Description

This delicious Air Fryer Fish recipe results in crispy, flavorful fish that is quick and easy to make. Using an air fryer cuts down on oil while still giving you that satisfying crunch.


Ingredients

Fish:

  • 4 fillets of white fish (such as cod or haddock)
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Batter:

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Egg Wash:

  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 tablespoon water

Instructions

  1. Prep the Fish: Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Prepare Batter: In a shallow dish, mix together the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Dip in Batter: Dredge each fish fillet in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
  4. Coat with Egg: Dip the floured fillets into the egg wash, allowing any excess to drip off.
  5. Breadcrumb Mixture: In another dish, combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and paprika.
  6. Coat with Breadcrumbs: Press each fillet into the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring an even coating.
  7. Air Fry: Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease the basket and place the breaded fish fillets inside. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the fish is golden and crispy.
  8. Serve: Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce and sides. Enjoy!

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can add herbs like parsley or dill to the breadcrumb mixture.
  • Adjust the seasoning in the flour and breadcrumb mixtures to suit your taste preferences.
  • Make sure not to overcrowd the air fryer basket to ensure proper air circulation for crispy fish.
