Description
A quick and healthy recipe for perfectly cooked tilapia loin in the air fryer, seasoned simply for a light and flavorful meal.
Ingredients
2 tilapia loins (about 6 ounces each), skinless and boneless
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 the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Brush both sides of each tilapia loin with the seasoned olive oil mixture.
Place the tilapia loins in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they do not overlap.
Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the fish flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Remove the tilapia loins from the air fryer and serve immediately with lemon wedges.
