Ingredients
- 1 package of frozen fish sticks
- Cooking spray (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 3-5 minutes to prepare it for cooking the fish sticks evenly.
- Arrange Fish Sticks: Place the frozen fish sticks in a single layer inside the air fryer basket. For extra crispiness, you may lightly spray them with cooking spray, but this step is optional.
- Cook the Fish Sticks: Air fry the fish sticks for 8-10 minutes, making sure to flip them halfway through to cook evenly on all sides and achieve a golden-brown crust.
- Cool Before Serving: Once cooked to your desired crispiness, remove the fish sticks from the air fryer and let them cool for a minute to avoid burning your mouth.
- Serve: Serve the crispy fish sticks with your favorite dipping sauces like tartar sauce, ketchup, or pair them with sides such as coleslaw for a complete meal.
Notes
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
- Cooking times may vary depending on the brand and model of your air fryer.
- For best results, flip the fish sticks halfway through the cooking process.
- Optional cooking spray helps achieve a crispier texture but is not necessary.
