• 1 1/2 lbs white fish fillets (flounder, cod, or tilapia)
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt

Modo de preparo

1. 1

   Remove fish from fridge 10 minutes before cooking to take the chill off.

2. 2

   Pat fillets completely dry on both sides with paper towels.

3. 3

   Mix salt, pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and onion powder in a small bowl. Rub evenly over both sides of each fillet. Brush or drizzle olive oil over the top.

4. 4

   In a shallow dish, combine panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and cornmeal if using. Press each fillet firmly into the mixture on both sides until well coated.

5. 5

   Preheat air fryer to 400°F for 3 minutes.

6. 6

   Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Arrange fillets in a single layer with no overlapping.

7. 7

   Cook at 400°F for 10 to 12 minutes until the coating is golden and the fish flakes easily with a fork. Check thinner fillets around 9 minutes.

8. 8

   Remove from air fryer, rest for 1 minute, then serve with lemon wedges and your choice of sauce.
