Gluten-Free Crispy Cajun Fish Fillets in the Air Fryer

by

Description

Cajun fish fillets made in the air fryer pack just enough heat and are perfectly crispy using gluten-free panko bread crumbs. I serve these as sandwiches on a gluten-free bun with lettuce, tomatoes, tartar sauce, and Cheddar cheese slices. Alternatively, you can skip the bun and serve in lettuce wraps or with a salad.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 ½ teaspoons Cajun seasoning
  • 1 cup gluten-free panko bread crumbs
  • 1 (1 pound) fillet cod, cut into 4 pieces
  • cooking spray

Instructions

  1. Combine mayonnaise and Cajun seasoning in a small bowl. Place bread crumbs on a plate.
  2. Spread Cajun mayonnaise on both sides of fish fillets with a small spatula or butter knife. Coat each fillet
  3. one at a time
  4. with bread crumbs. Lightly spray both sides of breaded fillets with cooking spray and transfer 2 fillets to each air fryer tray; do not overcrowd.
  5. Turn an air fryer to the Roast setting (375 degrees F (190 degrees C) according to manufacturer’s instructions and set timer to 14 minutes. Rotate trays at 7 minutes. Fish should flake easily with a fork.
  6. Carefully remove fillets from the trays and serve.
