Sure! Here’s a simple one-pot recipe for an air fryer Swai fish and asparagus packet:
Ingredients:
- 2 Swai fish fillets
- 1 bunch of asparagus
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 lemon, sliced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: herbs and spices of your choice (such as dill, thyme, or paprika)
Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
- Prepare the asparagus by trimming off the tough ends. You can snap off the woody ends or use a knife to cut them off.
- Cut two large pieces of aluminum foil, each big enough to hold one fish fillet and a portion of asparagus.
- Drizzle a little olive oil on each piece of aluminum foil to prevent sticking.
- Place one Swai fish fillet on each piece of foil. Season the fillets with salt, pepper, minced garlic, and any optional herbs or spices you prefer.
- Arrange half of the asparagus on top of each fish fillet. Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the asparagus.
- Place a couple of lemon slices on top of each asparagus and season with a little more salt and pepper if desired.
- Fold the foil over the fish and asparagus, sealing the edges tightly to create a packet. Make sure it is well sealed to trap the steam.
- Place the foil packets in the preheated air fryer basket. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Once done, carefully remove the packets from the air fryer and let them cool for a minute.
- Carefully open the packets, taking caution as hot steam will escape. Transfer the fish and asparagus to a plate or serving dish.
- Serve hot and enjoy your delicious air fryer Swai fish and asparagus!
Note: Cooking times may vary depending on the thickness of your fish fillets, so adjust accordingly. You can also customize this recipe by adding other vegetables or seasonings of your choice.
