Certainly! Here’s a simple and delicious air fryer tilapia recipe:
Ingredients:
- 4 tilapia fillets
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 eggs, beaten
- Cooking spray or oil
Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
- In a shallow bowl or plate, combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, paprika, garlic powder, dried parsley, salt, and pepper.
- Dip each tilapia fillet into the beaten eggs, ensuring it’s coated on both sides.
- Place the egg-coated fillets into the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere the crumbs to the fish. Flip and coat both sides evenly.
- Lightly coat the air fryer basket or tray with cooking spray or a small amount of oil to prevent sticking.
- Place the coated tilapia fillets in a single layer in the air fryer basket or tray, making sure they’re not overlapping.
- Cook the tilapia in the air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and the coating is crispy and golden brown. Flip the fillets halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
- Once cooked, carefully remove the tilapia from the air fryer and serve immediately with your favorite side dishes or a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
Enjoy your crispy and flavorful air fryer tilapia!
