Equipment

1 Air Fryer I used the COSORI TurboBlaze

Ingredients

1 pound cod
1/4 cup all purpose flour
2 eggs beaten
1 1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

Cut the fish into 6-8 portions.
Using 3 bowls, add the flour and half of the seasonings to the first one, add the beaten eggs to the second one, and add the panko crumbs and remaining seasonings to the third one. Mix the seasonings into the flour and bread crumbs.
Using a fork, dip each portion of fish into the flour mixture, followed by the egg mixture and finally the bread crumbs. Be sure the fish is fully coated after each step, using your hands to press the bread crumbs onto the fish if necessary.
Transfer the breaded fish into an air fryer that has been pre-heated to 400°F. Spray lightly with olive oil.
Air fry for 8-10 minutes, flipping after 5 minutes and spraying with additional oil as desired. Fish is done when internal temperature reaches 145°F.

Notes

Oven Instructions:

To make this in the oven, place panko crusted fish on a rimmed baking sheet and bake at 400°F for 10-12 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.

Storing & Reheating

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. To reheat, transfer to your air fryer basket and heat at 350° for 5-7 minutes or until heated through. You can also reheat it in the oven at 350° or a small skillet over medium heat.
