Air Fryer Frozen Cod
Description
Can you cook frozen cod in the air fryer? Absolutely! There’s no need to defrost frozen cod before preparing this air fryer cod (without breading).
Ingredients
- 2 cod fillets, frozen
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt, to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, to taste
- 1 teaspoon seasonings, garlic powder, paprika, lemon zest
- 4 Lemon slices, for serving
- 1 teaspoon Fresh parsley, for garnish, optional
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3-5 minutes.
- Take the frozen cod fillets directly from the freezer. Drizzle olive oil over the fillets and season with salt, pepper, and any optional seasoning blend you prefer.
- Place the seasoned frozen cod fillets in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they are not overlapping.
- Air fry the cod for 12-15 minutes, flipping the fillets halfway through the cooking time, until the fish is cooked through and has a crispy exterior.
- The internal temperature of the cod should reach 145°F (63°C) when fully cooked. If needed, cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
- Carefully remove the cod from the air fryer and serve with lemon slices and a sprinkle of fresh parsley, if desired. Enjoy your delicious, flaky air-fried cod!
