Notes
Just like with an oven or stovetop, it's a good idea to preheat your air fryer. Preheating helps ensure even cooking and better results. All machines are different so consult your instruction manual for specific tips.
Before seasoning or breading your fish, pat it dry with paper towels. Excess moisture on the surface can hinder crisping.
Season your fish generously. Don’t be afraid to use herbs, spices, or marinades. This adds flavor and enhances the overall appeal of the dish.
Lightly spray the air fryer basket or the fish itself with cooking spray. This helps prevent sticking and promotes crispiness.
Arrange the fish in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving some space between each piece. Overcrowding can lead to uneven cooking.
For even browning, flip the fish filets or pieces halfway through the cooking time. This ensures that both sides get crispy.
Keep a close eye on the cooking process, especially during the last few minutes. Fish cooks relatively quickly, and it's easy to overcook it in an air fryer.
A squeeze of fresh lemon or lime juice after cooking can add a burst of fresh flavor and balance to your fish. Like Mediterranean? Use lemon. Want a fiesta? Try lime!
Air-fried fish is best when served right away. It retains its crispiness and flavor when enjoyed promptly.
Don't be afraid to play with different coatings, seasonings, and sauces to find your favorite air-fried fish variations. The world is your oyster!
Storage - keep leftovers in an airtight container inside the fridge for 2-3 days. Do not refreeze.
