  • Pat the cod fillets dry before air frying: This will help them crisp up in the air fryer.
  • Season the cod fillets with your favorite spices: You can use a simple seasoning blend of salt and pepper, or you can get more creative with a blend of herbs and spices.
  • Preheat the air fryer before cooking the cod fillets: This will help the fillets cook more evenly.
  • Cook the cod fillets for 10-12 minutes, or until they are cooked through: The fillets should be opaque and flaky when they are done.
