ninja air fryer fish fillet

This dish is very flexible—you can serve it with tartar sauce, lemon wedges, or a dipping sauce of your choice. Pair it with fries for a healthier “fish and chips,” or keep it light with a side salad or roasted vegetables.

The best part? It only takes about 15 minutes, so it’s perfect for busy weeknights, family dinners, or when you need a simple high-protein meal.

Ingredients:

• 2 white fish fillets (cod, tilapia, haddock, or halibut)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil (or cooking spray)
• ½ cup breadcrumbs (panko or regular)
• ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon paprika
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon black pepper
• Lemon wedges (for serving)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your Ninja Air Fryer to 200°C (400°F).
2. Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels.
3. In a small bowl, mix breadcrumbs, Parmesan, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
4. Brush fish fillets with olive oil or spray lightly with cooking spray.
5. Coat the fish with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to stick.
6. Place the fillets in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
7. Cook for 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and flaky.
8. Serve hot with lemon wedges and dipping sauce.

Tips & Tricks

• Use panko breadcrumbs for extra crunch.
• Spray the fillets lightly with oil halfway through for an even crispier crust.
• If using frozen fish fillets, thaw completely before cooking.
• Add cayenne pepper or chili flakes for a spicy version.
• This recipe also works with salmon fillets—just adjust cooking time slightly.
