Rinse the halibut fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Brush the halibut fillets generously with the seasoned olive oil mixture, ensuring all sides are coated.
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for approximately 3 minutes. This helps achieve a crispier exterior.
Place the seasoned halibut fillets in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Cook in batches if necessary.
Air fry the halibut for 8 to 10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
While the fish is cooking, cut the lemon into wedges.
Once cooked, remove the halibut from the air fryer and let it rest for a minute. Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the fish.
