Ingredients:
2 cod fillets (about 1 inch thick, thawed if using frozen)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil or avocado oil
1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste)
1/2 teaspoon pepper (to taste)
1 tablespoon seasoning (e.g., Old Bay, lemon pepper, or Cajun spice)
Instructions:
Prep the Cod:
Brush both sides of the cod fillets with oil (or melted butter) and season with your choice of spices.
Old Bay seasoning is a great option, but you can also use garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Preheat the Air Fryer:
Let the cod marinate for about 5 minutes to absorb the spices.
Meanwhile, preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
Spray the air fryer basket with oil or cooking spray.
Air Fry the Cod:
Place the seasoned cod fillets in the air fryer basket.
Cook for 8-10 minutes, flipping the fillets halfway through to ensure even cooking.
The cod should be golden brown and crispy.
Check the internal temperature of the fish with a meat thermometer to ensure it reaches 145°F (63°C).
