Ingredients
- 2 fillets barramundi fish
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
- Lemon wedges for serving (optional)
Instructions
1. Preheat air fryer to 400°F (200°C). This ensures even cooking.
2. Prepare the fillets: Pat the barramundi fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
3. Season the fish: In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Brush this marinade evenly over both sides of the fillets.
4. Arrange in the air fryer: Place the fillets in the air fryer basket, making sure not to overcrowd them. Leave space for air to circulate.
5. Cooking time: Cook for 8-10 minutes, flipping the fillets halfway through the cooking process. This ensures both sides are evenly cooked.
6. Check for doneness: The fish should be opaque and flake easily with a fork. If necessary, cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
7. Serve: Once done, transfer the fillets to a serving plate. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges if desired.
Notes
Always check for doneness before serving. The internal temperature of the fish should reach 145°F (63°C).
