Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds cod fillets (or another white fish such as haddock, flounder, or sole)
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt

For Serving

  1. Take the cod out of the package and pat it dry with paper towels. Cut it into pieces that fit in the air fryer basket.
  2. Mince the garlic and juice the lemon if using a fresh lemon.
  3. Place a piece of parchment paper in the bottom of the air fryer for easier cleanup. Place the pieces of cod on top, skin side down.
