Friday night fish-fry at home! Tender cod is encrusted with a homemade breading and cooked in your air fryer for a guilt-free dinner. I like to serve this with tartar sauce, roasted potatoes, and homemade sweet and sour coleslaw.

  • Combine polenta, flour, seafood seasoning, garlic salt, onion powder, pepper, and paprika in a shallow dish. Coat each piece of cod with the breading mixture, pressing breading on each side of the fish until well coated.

  • Spray the basket of the air fryer with olive oil cooking spray. Arrange cod in the basket, leaving space between each piece so air can circulate. Spray the top of each piece of cod with cooking spray.

  • Cook for 8 minutes. Turn each piece, spray with cooking spray, and cook for 4 minutes more.

Cook's Note:

Substitute cornmeal for the polenta, if desired.

This is the first recipe I chose to make in my new air fryer and it was so easy! Made exactly as written and it was delicious. We've never had a cornmeal type coating on our fish before (we’re used to doing beer batter or breadcrumbs), but there was a perfect balance of flavors in this recipe and the coating adhered perfectly to our fish. Nice and crispy whereas if I baked these in the oven they probably would not be crisp at all. I used rockfish and lingcod fillets and my cook time was a little longer (16 min total)). Served with a chipotle seasoned tartar sauce I made and tater tots. Delish! Thanks for the recipe, Kim! Read More

This came out great! I reduced time to 7 minutes and 3 minutes because my cod fillets were on the thin side. Quick, easy, crispy and delicious. Read More
