Notes

  • Use fresh fish fillets for the best results.
  • Don’t let the fish sit in the coating mix or it will get soggy. Coat the fillets and then immediately place in the air fryer to cook.
  • Make sure you let the excess egg drop off the fillets before coating with the breadcrumbs.
  • Feel free to customize the flavor by using your favorite spices, herbs, and seasonings.
  • There is just 1 WW Blue Plan SmartPoint in a serving of this.
