Total Time:20 minutes
Yield:2 servings 1x
Ingredients
Scale
1 pound halibut fillets, about 1 inch thick
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Cooking spray
Instructions
In a shallow dish, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the olive oil and lemon juice. This mixture will help the parmesan crust adhere to the halibut.
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes. This ensures that the air fryer is hot and ready to cook the halibut evenly.
Pat the halibut fillets dry with paper towels. This helps to remove excess moisture and allows the parmesan crust to adhere better.
Brush each halibut fillet with the olive oil and lemon juice mixture, coating both sides.
Dredge each fillet in the parmesan crust mixture, pressing gently to ensure the crust adheres well to the fish.
Lightly grease the air fryer basket with cooking spray. This prevents the halibut from sticking to the basket.
Place the parmesan-crusted halibut fillets in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not overcrowded. Cook in batches if necessary.
Air fry for 8-12 minutes, or until the halibut is cooked through and the parmesan crust is golden brown and crispy. The cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the halibut fillets and the power of your air fryer. Check for doneness by flaking the fish with a fork; it should be opaque and easily separated.
