Air Fryer Fish Fry

Plan Z Phase: This is Z3.5 (ZReboot3.5) recipe.

Servings: Serves 2

A fish fry is a big deal in Wisconsin. The tradition is to eat fish like this on a Friday night. It dates back to when so many Catholics ate fish every Friday. Traditionally, the fish is served with French fries, coleslaw and a slice of rye bread with butter. It’s usually made with cod or perch.

Ingredients:

• 1 lb of cod, sliced into 4 strips
• Grated sea salt and pepper to taste
• 1/2 cup of white flour
• 1 large egg, beaten
• 2 cups of panko breadcrumbs
• 1 tsp of seasoning. Some folks use Old Bay or you can go wild and use Cajun or your favorite.
• Tarter sauce for serving.

Instructions:

Pat the fish dry and season with sea salt and pepper.
Set up a little assembly line with three containers or plates. One has the flour and seasoning in it. Another the egg, and the third has panko crumbs.
Dip the fish in the flour mixture, then the egg and then the panko. Press to make sure it sticks.
Place the fish in the basket of your air fryer. If all four pieces don’t fit, you can do this in batches. Cook at 400 degrees for 10 – 12 minutes. Carefully flip the fish halfway through. Cook until they are brown and crispy. They should flake easily with a fork.
Serve with tartar sauce for dipping.
Enjoy!

Cheers,
