No need to flip tilapia during cooking.
Remove carefully from the air fryer using a spatula.

Notes

Pat Tilapia dry with paper towels before seasoning.
Season fish generously especially if not topping with sauce like garlic butter or any other.
Substitute olive oil for vegetable oil or unsalted butter.
Don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket. Arrange Tilapia in a single layer, don’t stack. Cook in batches if need be.
Don’t overcook so the fish doesn’t dry out. Check for doneness after 6 minutes.
Adjust cooking time based on the thickness of the fish and the brand of Air Fryer used.
You can use an instant-read thermometer to check for doneness. When cooked, the internal temperature should be at least 145F/62C.
