New to air frying. Do y'all use? If so, how do you prepare fillets? What seasoning, coated with what? How long to air fry, and what temperature? Always been a deep-frying guy.

Can you use fish fry on them instead of bread crumbs?

Another tip I forgot to add was after coating your fillets in breading etc pop em in the fridge for 10 minutes or so. This helps your breading/fish fry to adhere the fillets before air frying.
Of note the above cooking time will vary with the thickness of whatever fish you are air frying.

I haven't managed a air fried piece of fish yet that I would brag on, will have to try the Buckeye approach.

Buy an air fryer, set it on counter. Heat up deep fryer. Bread fish, cook in deep fryer. Eat and enjoy while you stare at air fryer. Return air fryer for refund.

Bud, I really like the lenses you look at air fried Crappie thru. We have 2 air fryers, both Ninjas, a kettle type and a flat type. I can never go back for what we use them for. Today, my Crappie fillets took a crusty deep oil swim like they always do to fill some exceptional Tacos.Originally Posted by speckfinder

We use ours for baked taters and bratwurst, that's about it.

I cover in olive oil, dust em with tony chachere's cajun or lawry's (or your seasonings of choice) and let em bake at 275 for about 7-8 minutes. I also make a little aluminum foil "tray" to bake them in so cleanup is way easier. Quicker and easier than baking in the oven. I was apprehensive at first, but it's about the only way I eat them now.
I now drop them in the oil for special occasions since peanut oil is getting to be 20$ a gallon
