4 servings
- •1 pound fresh crappie fillets
- •2 tablespoons salt
- •½ cup yellow cornmeal
- •¼ cup all-purpose flour
- •1 teaspoon seasoned salt (such as LAWRY'S®)
- •1 teaspoon paprika
- •½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- •¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (Optional)
- •cooking spray
Instructions
- Place crappie fillets in a bowl. Add salt and water to cover. Cover and let sit to draw out all the blood, about 30 minutes. Rinse fillets thoroughly to remove salt. Pat dry with paper towels.
- Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions.
- Add cornmeal, flour, seasoned salt, paprika, pepper, and cayenne to a gallon-sized zip-top bag. Seal and shake until evenly combined. Drop 2 fillets into the bag, seal, and shake to coat. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining fillets.
- Spray the tops of the fillets with nonstick cooking spray. Place a layer of fillets in the air fryer basket, sprayed-side down, making sure none are overlapping. Spray the tops with cooking spray. Cook for 4 minutes. Carefully flip and spray any chalky spots. Cook until crispy, about 4 minutes more. Repeat with remaining fillets.
