Crispy Air Fryer Fish

These white fish fillets were tender inside and oh so crispy on the outside with no oily mess!

Ingredients:

3 basa (or other white fish) fillets, cut in half

2 egg whites

1/2 cup oat or all purpose flour

1/2 tsp smoked paprika

1/2 tsp dry minced onion

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp dry basil

1/4 tsp dry oregano

salt and pepper to taste

1 cup Panko

spray oil

Pat the fillets dry with paper towels and cut in half so they more easily fit in the air fryer basket. Whisk the egg whites together. Combine the flour and seasonings on a plate or in a bag (I like to use saved waxed cereal bags). Add the Panko to a separate plate or bag.

Dredge the fish in flour mixture then dip in egg, then coat completely in Panko. Spray the air fryer basket with oil and place the fish in leaving space between. Spray the tops with oil. Depending on the size of your air fryer you may have to work in batches.

Air fry at 400°F for 10-11 minutes, flipping over halfway through. The internal temperature should read 145°F when done.

Serves 2-3

Goes well with Cranberry Coleslaw. Here's the recipe:
