I\u2019m not sure why because they\u2019re usually so quick, delicious, and filling! My <a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/baked-mediterranean-cod\/\">Mediterranean cod<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/whole30-garlic-salmon-with-watercress\/#recipe\">whole 30 garlic salmon<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/spicy-cod-sandwich\/#recipe\">spicy cod sandwich<\/a> recipes always come in handy when I\u2019m craving something flavorful without having to spend hours in the kitchen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think this <strong>Air Fryer Tilapia<\/strong> will convert the fish-skeptics because it\u2019s ready to eat in less than 15 minutes, is super simple, and always turns out moist and flaky. Coated in a savory breadcrumb parmesan coating and quickly fried in the air fryer, every bite is flavorful and crunchy! The best part is drizzling the vibrant and luscious homemade lemon butter on top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can make this air fryer fish recipe with frozen or fresh tilapia, gluten free or regular breadcrumbs, and add as many herbs or garnishes as you wish. I don\u2019t think weeknight dinners get more delicious or easy than this!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-recipe-features\">Recipe features<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Air fry + savory breaded white fish = heaven<\/li><li>I know it\u2019s hard to believe but this recipe only takes 15 minutes from start to finish!&nbsp;<\/li><li>The ingredients are simple and create an easy, light, filling, and healthy weeknight dinner.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Every bite is super tangy and flavorful thanks to the homemade lemon butter.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Air-Fryer-Tilapia-ingredients.jpg\" alt=\"raw fish on a plate with text overlay\" class=\"wp-image-98549\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Air-Fryer-Tilapia-ingredients.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Air-Fryer-Tilapia-ingredients-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Air-Fryer-Tilapia-ingredients-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Air-Fryer-Tilapia-ingredients-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Air-Fryer-Tilapia-ingredients-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Air-Fryer-Tilapia-ingredients-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Air-Fryer-Tilapia-ingredients-150x225.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ingredient-notes\">Ingredient notes:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Tilapia fillets<\/strong> &#8211; Use fresh or frozen.

Otherwise, the fish might stick, and we don&#8217;t want that. <\/li><li>If you\u2019re a big fan of crispy fried fish, try double breading your tilapia fillets. To do this, simply repeat the breading process twice.\u00a0<\/li><li>Be sure to pat your tilapia fillets dry before you bread them, otherwise, the breading will have a hard time sticking to the fish.\u00a0<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-goes-well-with-tilapia\">What goes well with tilapia?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This light and tangy air fryer tilapia pairs well with comforting, family-friendly side dishes, like <a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/mashed-red-potatoes\/\">mashed red potatoes<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/honey-sriracha-brussels-sprouts\/\">honey sriracha brussels sprouts<\/a>, salad, <a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/easy-weeknight-broccoli\/\">broccoli<\/a> and other vegetables, or <a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/cilantro-lime-brown-rice\/\">cilantro lime rice<\/a>. Alternatively, slice the fried fish fillets and pile them into tortillas to make fish tacos! They\u2019d be delicious with a <a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/the-ultimate-taco-salad\/\">chipotle lime yogurt crema<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/pineapple-salsa\/\">pineapple salsa<\/a> on top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-temperature-should-tilapia-be-cooked-to\">What temperature should tilapia be cooked to?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To ensure that your tilapia is thoroughly cooked, you\u2019ll want to fry it until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the fillets reads 145\u00b0F.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-can-i-make-this-recipe-with-other-types-of-fish\">Can I make this recipe with other types of fish?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes! Any type of white and flaky fish is perfect for breading and cooking in the air fryer. Alaskan cod, catfish, and halibut are a few of my favorites.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-long-does-it-last\">How long does it last?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Enjoy the leftovers for lunch the next day! Leftover tilapia will stay fresh in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days when wrapped well in foil and stored in an airtight container. You can reheat fish for a few minutes in the oven, air fryer, or microwave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Air-Fryer-Tilapia-1-7.jpg\" alt=\"a piece of tilapia on a plate with a bite taken out of it\" class=\"wp-image-98554\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Air-Fryer-Tilapia-1-7.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Air-Fryer-Tilapia-1-7-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Air-Fryer-Tilapia-1-7-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Air-Fryer-Tilapia-1-7-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Air-Fryer-Tilapia-1-7-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Air-Fryer-Tilapia-1-7-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Air-Fryer-Tilapia-1-7-150x225.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-more-delicious-air-fryer-recipes\">More delicious air fryer recipes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/air-fryer-lamb-chops\/\">Lamb Chops<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/air-fryer-chicken-thighs\/\">Air Fryer Chicken Thighs<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/air-fryer-scallops\/\">Air Fryer Scallops<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>If you made this recipe, be sure to leave a comment and star rating below.
