Main Ingredients

  • 4 pieces Fresh cod fillets Look for firm, moist fillets.
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil For moisture and crispiness.
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika For subtle smokiness.
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder For an aromatic kick.
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice To add brightness.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Rinse the cod fillets under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
  • Season the fillets with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, and lemon juice.
  • Let the cod sit for about 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.

Cooking

  • Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  • Place the seasoned cod fillets in the air fryer basket without overlapping.
  • Cook for 10-12 minutes, checking halfway through, until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

Notes

Serve air fryer cod with a side of fresh garden salad, mashed potatoes, or steamed vegetables. Garnish with fresh lemon juice and parsley for added flavor and presentation.
