Air Fryer Crispy Tilapia Fish

This is one of the most requested recipes on the Air Fryer Recipes & Tips Facebook Group. Everyone wants to know how to bread up white fish, so it gets nice and crispy. Today, I made a recipe for Air Fryer Crispy Tilapia Fish, but you can change it out for any white fish. The recipe would be the same.

In New England Friday nights, we have church events. They are called Fish Fries, where they serve fried fish and French fries, and maybe a side of coleslaw. The fish served is usually either cod or haddock.

Today, for this recipe, I used a simple Tilapia and breaded it. This recipe would work for any white fish.

Air Fryer Crispy Tilapia Fish

Ingredients:

• 1-2 pounds tilapia fillets
• 1 cup breading fish (affiliate link)
• 1/2 cup water

Simple Directions:

1. Start by cleaning your fish. I rinse it under cold water.
   
2. Then separate the fillets into pieces.
   
3. Wet the fish and then dip it into the fish fry breading.
   
4. Set the fish as your bread it into a sprayed (with olive oil) cooking spray.
   
5. Then set the time for 370 degrees for 8 to 12 minutes.

   

6. After 8 minutes, my fillets were nice and flaky.
   
7. Remove when they are done, and cooked all the way through.
   
8. Plate, serve, and enjoy!
