Description
A quick and healthy recipe for perfectly cooked tilapia loin using an air fryer. This dish features tender, flaky fish with a light seasoning, ready in just 15 minutes.
Ingredients
2 tilapia loins (about 4 ounces each), thawed if frozen
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 lemon, cut into wedges
Instructions
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 3 minutes.
Pat the tilapia loins dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Brush the seasoning mixture evenly over both sides of each tilapia loin.
Place the tilapia loins in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they do not overlap.
Cook the tilapia in the air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the tilapia from the air fryer and serve immediately with lemon wedges.
