1 Single Serve Recipe
Ingredients
Instructions
- For FP, spray both sides of the fish fillet with the oil spray and then season both sides. If trying the S-option, spray one side of the fillet, season that side, turn it over, top with pieces of the butter or coconut oil then season on top of that.
- Place the fish in the air fryer and turn temperature to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Depending on thickness of fish, cook for 9 to 15 minutes. Very thin pieces of fish will only need 9 to 10 minutes, thicker pieces like Cod will need 13 to 15 minutes.
Note
Recipe & Serving Suggestions:
- While this recipe is written for a single fillet of fish, you can just add another fillet or two to the air fryer if you want to cook more.
- If you don’t have an air fryer you can do this similar thing in your oven with frozen fillets, it just takes a little longer as you have to wait for a pre-heat and cook slightly longer. For regular ovens, set temp to 400 degrees and bake for about 5 minutes longer than the following air fryer directions suggest.
- Pearl & Serene both use Ninja air fryers. Different machines may vary in cook times.
(Pearl used 2 different brands and didn’t have great results until she got her Ninja). - For an E Meal pair your fish with a lovely Quinoa Salad or a side of fruit such as a mango, mango is awesome with white fish!

Many people believe they don’t like fish because they have memories of not enjoying it from childhood. Or… preparing it can seem overwhelming… how on earth to cook it!!!??? Many of us who live in land locked areas don’t have access to fresh fish and we have no clue how to deal with frozen. Serene’s way of taking a fillet of frozen fish and making it incredible in just 10 – 15 minutes is life changing.
