Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams White fish fillets (e.g., cod, haddock)
- 240 milliliters Low-fat buttermilk
- 150 grams Whole wheat breadcrumbs
- Olive oil spray
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 Lemon wedges
Instructions
Cut the fish fillets into bite-sized pieces. Pat dry with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture.
In a large bowl, immerse the fish pieces in the low-fat buttermilk. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to marinate.
In a shallow dish, combine whole wheat breadcrumbs, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Drain the fish pieces from the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off, then coat each piece thoroughly in the breadcrumb mixture.
Preheat the air fryer to 200°C (390°F) for about 3 minutes.
Lightly spray the coated fish pieces with olive oil spray to ensure crispiness. Place them in a single layer in the air fryer basket. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
Cook the fish pieces for about 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the fish pieces from the air fryer and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
