Ingredients

  • 4 cod fillets (about 6 oz each)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Lemon wedges for serving

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, dill, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. Marinate the Cod: Place cod fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring even coating. Let them marinate for 10 minutes.
  3. Preheat Air Fryer: Set the air fryer to 400°F and preheat for 3 minutes.
  4. Cook the Cod: Place the marinated cod fillets in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook at 400°F for 10-12 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  5. Check for Doneness: Ensure the internal temperature of the cod reaches 145°F.
  6. Serve: Garnish with lemon wedges and serve immediately.

Tips

  • Ensure the cod fillets are of similar thickness for even cooking.
  • Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket to allow proper air circulation.
  • For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of lemon zest over the cooked fillets.
