Fish in the air fryer - how do you like it?

troutpocket · Jul 4, 2022

Hey all, happy 4th. I ended up with a bounty of fresh ling cod and halibut on a Westport trip with Captain Nick Clayton. I’m going to try making some in the air fryer tonight. I’m going for light breading vs thick batter coating. Online recipes feature a lot of cracker coatings. Anyone care to share their favorite way to do fish in the air fryer?

I’ve been wondering too… great question!

Air fryer ling cod and halibut V1 was a success. I read some recipes and watched some YT videos. Went with seasoning the fish with salt and pepper, dredging in flour, an egg wash, then crushed ritz crackers. I spayed on a little oil to aid with sticking and browning. Twenty minutes in the air fryer at 350, turning once at half way. It was all gone before I thought to take a picture. My air fryer basket holds about 1.5 lbs of fish chunks and I have about 0.5 lb of leftover ling thawed and ready for a small batch tomorrow.
