How To Make Air Fryer Flounder

First prep the air fryer basket with nonstick spray. This is important so the fish doesn’t stick to the basket while cooking. Alternatively, you can brush the basket with vegetable oil.

Lay out 2 flounder fillets and top with seasonings. Place in air fryer and heat at 400 degrees for 10 minutes. Thicker fillets may require a longer cooking time. To check doneness, use a meat thermometer to be sure the flounder is at least 145 degrees in the center of the fillet. If not, cook in air fryer for another 5 minutes.

Once fish is done cooking, remove from air fryer with a spatula. Place on serving dish.

Cooking Tips

• This recipe works for fresh or frozen flounder. No need to defrost, although you may need to add a few minutes of cooking time for a frozen fillet
• Use seasonings of your choice in this recipe. We suggest salt, pepper, and garlic powder
• No need to flip the fish while cooking in the air fryer. The appliance will evenly cook both sides

What Temperature To Cook Fish In The Air Fryer?

400 degrees is a good temperature for cooking fish fillets in the air fryer. For best results, lay the fillets out in a single layer and avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket. This helps the fish to cook evenly.
