      Fish fry at home on Friday nights! For a guilt-free dinner, encrusted tender cod is fried in your air fryer with a homemade breading. I prefer to serve it with roasted potatoes, tartar sauce, and sweet and sour coleslaw that I make from scratch.

      This Air Fryer Crispy Cod is straightforward to prepare, and you won’t believe it’s oil-free!

      If you enjoy items that have a golden brown CRUNCH on the outside with the flavorful inside, you’ll love this soft, flaky, exquisitely moist, and crispier Cod fried in the air fryer (no greasiness, no extra fat).

      Why Should You Go for Air Fryer Cod?

      You’ve come to the perfect place if you’re looking for quick, easy, crowd-pleasing recipes that are ideal for game day dinner! This recipe will show you how to air fry fish and obtain incredible flavor and crisp texture, almost as if it were deep-fried! You’ll adore this recipe since it’s a healthy, equally delicious alternative to deep-fried fish.

      How to Serve the Air Fryer Crispy Cod?

      When you have a few sizzling, crispy, and delicious air fryer Cod to eat with the delicious homemade sauce, it’s time to relax and enjoy yourself! Still, if you want to make it a meal, serve it with a quantity of keto French fries or parsnip fries or on the side and some tartar sauce and ketchup.

      Important Tips:

      Don’t Overfill: Make sure there’s enough room among all the pieces of Cod. Everything will cook evenly as a result of this.

      Halfway Flip: Flip the Cod after approx 10 min to ensure that both sides are cooked evenly.

      Crunch it up a bit more: After you’ve flipped the Cod and fried both sides, flip it again to crisp it up some more. This is one of my favorite things since it provides a little more crunch!
