Ingredients
  

  • 12 ounces tilapia filets
  • Cooking oil spray
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt, to taste
  • Fresh cracked black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh chopped parsley for garnish
  • Lemon wedges for serving

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat Air Fryer to 360°F/182°C for 5 minutes.
  • Rinse and thoroughly pat dry the tilapia filets. Spray or brush with oil and add your favorite seasonings to both sides.
  • To prevent sticking, lay perforated parchment or a silicone mat inside the air fryer base. Lightly spray the liner with oil.
  • Carefully lay the seasoned tilapia on top of the liner. Place a few lemon wedges next to the fish.
  • Air Fry at 360°F/182°C for about 6-12 minutes, or until the tilapia is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  • (Optional) Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley and serve warm with the toasted lemon wedges.
