    Recipe:

      To make this delicious dish, you will need the following ingredients: whiting fish fillets, oil to mist, very fine cornmeal, flour, Old Bay seasoning, salt, paprika, garlic powder, black pepper. Combine the cornmeal, flour, Old Bay seasoning, salt, paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper in a Ziplock bag and shake to mix. Rinse and pat dry the fish fillets, making sure they are still slightly damp. Place them in the Ziplock bag and shake until fully coated with the seasoning mixture. Place the fillets on a baking rack to allow excess flour to fall off. Grease the bottom of your air fryer basket and place the fillets in the basket. Cook for 7-10 minutes at 400 degrees, flipping halfway through cooking and spraying lightly with oil. Adjust your cook time as needed based on the thickness of your fillets. Serve immediately.

      Tips and Tricks:

        1. Spray oil only halfway through cooking to increase crispiness.

        2. Do not use over-the-counter misting sprays in your air fryer, as they can damage the coating on the basket. Invest in a good oil mister instead.

        3. Do not overcrowd your air fryer basket, as overcrowding will lead to steaming rather than frying.

        4. Make sure the fish is fully covered in oil and all seasoning is fully covered with no flour spots showing to achieve a beautiful golden color.

        5. Eat fried fish immediately for the best taste.

        FAQs:

          1. What's the best fish to use in this recipe?

          Whiting fish works perfectly in this recipe, but you can use any other type of white fish you prefer.

          2. Can I make this recipe with frozen fish?

          While you can use good quality frozen fillets, make sure they are fully thawed before seasoning, and pat them with a paper towel to remove excess water.

          3. Is this recipe healthier than traditional fried fish?

          Yes! Fish is an excellent source of protein and low in fat. Cooking it in an air fryer requires only a fraction of the oil needed for traditional frying, making it a healthier option without sacrificing taste.

          Conclusion:
