Ingredients

Scale
  • Key Ingredients
  • 2 fresh white fish filets (cod or tilapia)
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Instructions
  2. 1. Prepare Your Fish: Rinse the fish filets under cold water and pat dry with paper towels to ensure optimal crispiness.
  3. 2. Season Generously: In a small bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Brush this mixture over the fish filets until thoroughly coated.
  4. 3. Preheat Your Air Fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
  5. 4. Cook the Fish: Place seasoned filets in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for approximately 10 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches at least 145°F (63°C).
  6. 5. Flip for Even Cooking: Around the halfway mark (after about 5 minutes), gently flip the filets to ensure they brown evenly on both sides.
  7. 6. Serve With Style: Transfer cooked fish to plates and squeeze extra lemon juice on top. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
