Ingredients
For seasoning mixture:
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
For fish:
- cooking spray or enough oil to coat fish
- 2 (6 oz) frozen tilapia filtes, unthawed
- lemon wedges or slices
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 380 degrees F.
- Mix seasonings together in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Spray or coat fish with oil. Season tilapia evenly on both sides.
- Spray air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray. Place the seasoned tilapia filets in the basket.
- Air fry tilapia for about 8 to 10 minutes. Fish is done when it reaches 145 degrees F or can be flaked easily with a fork.
Notes
- I didn't flip the tilapia over since the filets were quite thin.
- Your cooking time might vary depending on the size of your filets.
- A meat thermometer can help determine the internal temperature so you'll know when the fish is cooked through.
- Do your best to lay the fish in a single layer. If the edges are overlapping a little bit, it should be fine.
