How to Cook Fish in an Air Fryer: Easy 10 Minute Meal
I show my favorite way to cook fresh fish in the air fryer, with simple seasoning, bread crumbs and about ten minutes of cook time.
What’s in this video
This is my favorite air fryer fried fish recipe. I keep it simple: fresh fish fillets, Danos seasoning and plain bread crumbs (panko is a good choice too). The fish needs to be damp so the breading and seasoning stick.
I set the air fryer to 400 degrees and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, depending on how thick the fillets are. A lot of people coat fillets in egg and a flour mix first, but I feel that robs flavor from some fish, so I skip it. Season and bread to your own taste. The ingredients I use are gluten free.
Quick takeaways
- Cook at 400 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes, depending on fillet thickness.
- Keep the fillets damp so the seasoning and bread crumbs stick.
- Skipping the egg and flour coat keeps more of the fish flavor.
- Plain bread crumbs or panko both work.
