Crispy Air Fryer Fish Fillet Recipe

Indulging in crispy, crunchy fish fillets has never been easier, thanks to the air fryer. This delightful recipe promises a golden exterior with tender, flaky fish on the inside, all without the guilt of deep frying.

Ingredients:

• 4 fresh fish fillets (haddock, cod, or your preference)
• 100g plain flour
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• 150g breadcrumbs (panko for extra crunch)
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• A drizzle of olive oil or cooking spray

Instructions:

1. Begin by preheating the air fryer to 200°C (390°F).
2. Set up a trio of stations: one for the seasoned flour, another for the beaten eggs, and the last for the breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
3. Lightly coat each fish fillet in the flour, shaking off any excess, before dipping it into the egg wash. Finally, roll it in the breadcrumb mixture until well covered.
4. Place the coated fillets in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Give them a light spray with olive oil for that extra crispiness.
5. Cook for about 10 to 12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the fillets are golden brown and have reached a safe internal temperature.
6. Serve hot with a side of tartar sauce and a fresh salad for a delightful meal that’s both healthy and utterly satisfying.

Enjoy the scrumptious crunch of these air-fried fish fillets—you’ll never look back!
