What is an Air Fryer?

An air fryer is a kitchen appliance that cooks by circulating hot air around the food using the convection mechanism. It is a downsized version of the convection oven.

What are the Best Large Size Air Fryers?

If you are researching air fryers and looking to buy the best ones out there on the market I have tried and tested 2 different ones before. If you want to be able to cook more food for your family at once then get an air fryer with a large basket such as 5.3 quarts. Look for ones that say nonstick on them and has multiple program settings. Power XL Air Fryer 5.3 Quart Basket.

Do I need to preheat an air fryer?

Some air fryers require preheating and some do not. Be sure to check your air fryer manual.

Instructions

Tartar Sauce: In a small bowl, stir the mayonnaise, chopped pickles, and pickle juice; set aside in the fridge while you prepare your fish.
Mix the bread crumbs and seasoning together in a shallow dish. Stir to combine.
In another shallow dish, beat an egg with a fork.
For the fish: Take your fish and dip it into the egg on both sides, then dip it into the bread crumb mixture. Repeat with the remaining fish.
Air Fry: Place the fish in your air fryer basket and set the temperature for 350 and the time to 12 minutes. Spray the fish with cooking spray and close the basket.
Flip the fish half ways through cooking at 6 minutes.
When the fish is done, take it out and set it aside on a plate
Toast your buns. Set the buns in the air fryer basket (white side up) and spray the buns with cooking spray. Continue cooking the buns for 2 to 3 minutes (same temperature as above) or until the buns are golden brown around the edges.
To serve: place the crispy fish filet with some cheese on top and a couple of tablespoons of the tarter sauce. Serve immediately.
