Place on a plate and repeat process with remaining fish. Air Fry 1. Pre heat air fryer to 400°F for 12 minutes. When ready, place tilapia, spacing evenly and spray the top with non-stick cooking spray. 2.

AIR FRYER TILAPIA

Steps:

• Preheat air fryer to 400 degrees according to manufacturer directions.
• Pat tilapia dry with paper towel to remove any excess moisture.
• Whisk together milk and egg in a wide shallow dish.
• Combine coating in a large glass dish (big enough so that the dish can lay flat): bread crumbs, flour, Parmesan, seasoning salt, Italian seasoning, salt, garlic powder, paprika and pepper.
• Coat tilapia in milk mixture and press firmly into the coating mixture, coating both sides well.
• Open air fryer and brush basket with oil. Place tilapia in the basket (if you like, you can line the basket with parchment so they are easier to remove later). Spray top of tilapia with oil spray.
• Cook for 8-10 minutes, until golden brown and fish flakes easily with a fork. If desired, you can flip the tilapia half way for more even browning, but remember that fish can be delicate.

LIGHTLY BREADED AIR FRYER TILAPIA

Steps:

• Preheat the air fryer to 400°F. Meanwhile, pat each tilapia filet dry with a paper towel, then spray with avocado oil spray and sprinkle with salt.
• Mix panko breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, paprika, pepper, and garlic powder in a shallow dish. Place each tilapia filet in the dish and coat with breading. (You most likely won't use up all of the breading.)
• (This is where the magic happens.) Place the breaded filets on a sheet of parchment paper. Lay another piece of parchment paper on top. Use a rolling pin to gently roll over the filets and press the breading into the fish. This step helps the breading adhere to the fish for maximum crispiness!
• Add the tilapia to the preheated air fryer and cook for 7 minutes (or until the fish reaches 145°F).
• Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice!
