Grab your Air Fryer and make this Crispy Air Fryer Fish ASAP# Covered in a crispy delicious crust, you can have guilt free fried fish as often as you like# Tips for Air Fried Fish I’d suggest using fresh fish fillets for this recipe or good quality frozen fillets# If you’re fillets are too thin, they won’t do well in this recipe as they won’t have enough time to crisp well# Spray your oil only halfway through cooking as this will increase crispiness# Do not use the over the counter misting sprays in your air fryer (For Example, Pam)# For whatever chemical reason, those things can take the coating right off your air fryer basket# Your best bet is to invest in a good oil mister# I use this one# If you really love your over the counter spray and want to use it anyway, remove the fish from the air fryer basket before spraying to make sure it doesn’t land on your basket# Do not overcrowd your air fryer basket or your fish will steam rather than fry# Make sure when spraying, the fish is fully covered in oil and all seasoning has been fully covered with no flour spots showing# If flour spots are showing, you will not get that good golden color# I use whiteing fish in this recipe however this method will work for any other white fish# Eat fried fish immediatley# All fried foods are better that way# You must have hot sauce# I mean, it’s just a must#

Ingredients:

4-6 Whiting Fish fillets cut in half (or walleye, cod, etc.)
Oil to mist
Fish Seasoning
¾ cup very fine cornmeal
¼ cup flour
2 tsp old bay
1 ½ tsp salt
1 tsp paprika
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp black pepper
OR
Your favorite fish seasoning

Instructions:

Combine ingredients for fish seasoning in a Ziplock bag and shake. Set to the side. In the alternative, you could use your favorite fish seasoning. Rinse and pat dry your fish fillets with paper towels. They should still be damp. Place fish fillets in ziplock bag and shake, until fillets are fully covered with seasoning. Place fillets on a baking rack to allow any excess flour to fall off. Grease the bottom of your air fryer basket and place the fillets in the basket. Cook filets on 400 degrees for 10 minutes. Open basket and spray the fish on the side that is facing up before flipping, ensuring that the fish is fully coated. Flip and cook other side for 7 minutes. Remove fish and serve.
