Nothing like some homemade fried fish! But who wants to get all messy? Not to mention i absolutely hate pouring oil into a pan to cook something. Each tablespoon of oil (which is the size of your thumb) is 120 calories. Why addddd more calories to your food that you can’t even taste?
Serves 4
Ingredients:
1lb tilapia filet (cod works well too)
1/2c flour (season with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic and onion powder)
1 egg
1 cup crushed cornflakes or bran flakes (with this recipe i used bran flakes) Season with same seasonings as flour.
Directions:
Gather three large wide bowls. Add the flour and seasonings to bowl one and mix. Bowl two add the egg and some water, beat until uniform. Bowl three add the crushed flakes (i crushed them in a plastic bag) and add same seasonings as flour.
Heat air fryer to 350 degrees F.
Dip tilapia in the flour and shake off excess. Then dip in the egg and shake of excess. Lastly dip into the flakes and make sure its evenly all over the fish. Spray the basket with non-stick. Add tilapia filets and cook for 13 minutes. Repeat as needed.
