Ingredients
- 1 pound cod fillets
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice bottled or fresh
- 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
-
Preheat the air fryer to 350 °F and pat each side of the cod fillets with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
-
Combine the olive oil and the lemon juice in a small bowl. Brush each side of the cod fillets with the olive oil. Brush the inside of the air fryer basket with the remaining oil to help with sticking (optional).
- In a small dish, mix the paprika, salt, garlic powder, and pepper and rub the seasonings on each side of the fish.
- Place the cod in the air fryer basket or tray and cook for 8 minutes, until a meat thermometer reaches 145 °F and the fish easily flakes.
Notes
- Cook frozen cod at 350 degrees for 4 minutes, add the oil and seasonings, then air fry again at 370 degrees for about 10 minutes.
- Reheat leftovers in a preheated air fryer at 350 degrees for about 5 minutes.
