Easy Air Fryer Halibut
How to make air fryer halibut with minimal ingredients, but tons of flavor. My recipe is done in just minutes making it perfect for dinner any night of the week.
Equipment
Ingredients
- (2) 5 ounce halibut fillets
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- 2 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- In a small dish, mix the paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until they are well blended.
- Rub the olive oil on all sides of both fillets, including the skin side. Generously sprinkle the seasonings on all sides of both fillets.
- Preheat the air fryer to 350 degrees F. Place the fish in the air fryer without touching each other. Air fry them at 350 degrees F for 6-8 minutes. They're done when the fish has an internal temperature of 130 degrees.
Notes
- Pat the fish dry with a paper towel to help the oil and spices stick better.
- Rub the fish generously with oil and coat it well on both sides with the seasoning blend. This gives me that delicious crispiness!
- I usually spray the air fryer basket with olive oil spray to keep the fillets from sticking.
- Leaving space between each fillet in the air fryer is the key to getting each piece of fish crispy and cooked to perfection.
- To keep the fish moist, do not overcook it. Once the cook time is up, use a fork to gently nudge the fish to see if it flakes easily and is translucent all the way through.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Reheat leftovers in the air fryer preheated at 350 degrees F for just a few minutes.
