How long to cook frozen tilapia in air fryer

The air fryer time can vary based on the size and thickness of the fish. You know fish has cooked when its
  • White and Opaque in color
  • When it's firm, flaky, and bright white inside, as opposed to a translucent white and squishy
  • It registers an internal temperature of 145F inside.

Serving

  • Low Carb Meal -I usually like a salad or roast vegetables on the side with it. In fact, you can make your whole meal in the air fryer in one shot. Check the variations section to see it.
  • Rice Bowls - Over a Salad and a cup of rice.
  • Fish Tacos - Guacamole, shredded cabbage, and this fish- broken into chunks.
  • Pasta - Seve this over a nice tomato-basted pasta. I just love fish in tomato sauce.
