1. Arrange the frozen fish fillets in one layer on an air fryer tray. If you’re using the same number of filets as in this recipe, you should be able to fit all of them on a single tray. You also shouldn’t need to apply cooking spray if you’re using breaded fish with a lot of oil or fat.
2. Place the tray containing the frozen filets in the air fryer’s top rack. This is the closest location to the heat source.
3. Frozen fish should be air-fried at 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes. After that, turn the fish filets over and return the tray containing the fish to the top rack. Cook for another 7 minutes at 350°F (175°C) in the air fryer.
4. Ensure your fish has achieved the safe minimum internal temperature of 145°F (63°C); verify this using a kitchen thermometer. If it hasn’t, continue the air frying process for a few minutes longer.
5. While the fish is cooking, combine the mayonnaise and pickles to make a simple tartar sauce alternative.
6. Zest the lemon juice over the fish before serving. Tartar sauce should be served on the side.
