Ingredients

• 4 pieces Halibut fillets
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 cup Gluten-free breadcrumbs
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 4 pieces Lemon wedges

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.

Step 2

Rinse the halibut fillets and pat them dry with paper towels.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Brush the halibut fillets with the seasoned olive oil and lemon juice mixture on both sides, ensuring they are well-coated.

Step 5

Place the gluten-free breadcrumbs in a shallow dish. Dredge each fillet in the breadcrumbs, pressing gently to ensure the breadcrumbs adhere well.

Step 6

Spray the air fryer basket with a non-stick spray or lightly coat with additional olive oil to prevent sticking.

Step 7

Place the breaded fillets in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.

Step 8

Air fry the halibut fillets for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through the cooking time, until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the coating is golden brown and crispy.

Step 9

Remove the fillets from the air fryer and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.

Step 10

Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
