At my air fryer took me longer after 10 min I had to switch to air fryer / grill for 10 min . It turned out great

[@merarigomez6835]

air frying sucks, takes too much time to cook.

[@Red_F1ag_Br0]

I used the recipe for the first meal I cooked for my wife after having a baby and I just wanted to thank you for this very quick and easy how to video! This recipe gave 2 exhausted people a delicious meal. Thanks again.

I can’t begin to tell you how much I love what you do on this channel! I have a Corsini air fryer that I have not used yet. It’s been sitting in my cupboard for a year!!! I just needed a new toaster oven, so I bought the 12 function toaster/air fryer/ convection etc. oven. Now I can’t wait to try them both. I can keep my cooktop and oven both spotless while I sell my house. THANK YOU!

[@laurenbowles130]

I got an air frier for Christmas this year....We often have trout in the freezer....I used this as my 1st time cooking fish in the air frier. THIS WAS AMAZING!!!! I preheated my unit, and I used kosher salt. No parsley or lemon juice as I didn't have any at the time. Thank you for this fast and supper yummy recipe!

[@cookingwithcoit]

Fantastic additions! Thanks for watching!

[@jeoffgeneroza3875]

Love your channel! Been following ur air fry recipes and they all are amazing😅

[@tokk3n-hj4xg]

This is so cool. I used to make it the old school way i.e. cooking oil, but this way is so much healthier. BTW I followed your steps for air frying Salmon. That came out good, and my son loved it. Thanks.

[@flex_007]

Tried this and it came out so good and easy to make thanx👍👨‍🍳

[@debbiepolk4837]

Looks good

[@DJ-kb8nt]

I don’t cook, basically at all. Trying to learn to though and this fish was super easy to prep and was actually delish to eat. Thanks for the video, very much appreciated.

[@sandradent65]

Hi Coit, I've never heard of tilapia fish before, it looks lovely. I'm going to do sea bass for my tea, I usually pan fry it, but I'm going to do it in the air fryer tonight. I think I'll try seven minutes to start as my fillet is thinner than yours. I will have to look in the supermarket to see if they sell it. I also like bream and rainbow trout

[@fabiankirtonbunny8185]

very nice , i will try this recipe

[@williamwilson6499]

Great recipe…the simplicity and results are brilliant.

Looks GOOOD.

[@cbviau1332]

I'm stumbled across you a little bit ago and I'm glad I did. I love tilapia and will try your recipe. It looks terrific. I'm so glad you mentioned cooking one filet. I am a single household and need more recipes for one person. Thank you for being you.

[@cookingwithcoit]

I’m so happy you found me 🙌🏻 Enjoy the recipes!

[@sandradent65]

You can do a fry up in the air fryer. I got the 5.5 ltr size. I do bacon, sausage , beans, chopped tomatoes and potato cigarettes or hash browns in it. I bought some little pots to put the beans and tomatoes in. I also do vine tomatoes as well. You can do an egg in a little pot as well but I'm not keen on eggs done in the air fryer. You could also do fish fingers or chicken coujohns and chips or sausage, beans and chips

[@rayperez3426]

Maybe I missed it, but I haven't seen you pre-heat your air fryer when you cook. I'm sure that will change the cooking time. You have great recipes. Thanks

[@catalinawagner8843]

So cool, easy to make tilapia, so yes it broke, then I tried it with the paper you put in the air fryer and just flip it over in your plate. Thank you for the recipe!

[@thesunrises4557]

Looking scrumptious 😋 😋with less spices

[@melisawhitecotton7770]

Made this tonight snd it was sooo good! I doubled the seasoning because I had 5 filets. I also had no fresh parsley so I just added some dried to the top after I seasoned both sides .

[@cookingwithcoit]

Great job! I'm so happy to hear that you loved this recipe! 👏🏻

[@cecih4702]

[@Raisingaamazingson]

Two years later and just want to let you know it help me so much for dinner. 😘thank you my hero

[@chanterouxe]

Wow! What a great recipe and taste! Super excellent tilapia! From now on, it will be my tilapia recipe go-to! The only change I made was adding another 1/2 tsp of paprika. Thank you for this super tasty recipe! I subscribed to your channel for other great finds! Thank you! Merci!

[@Adrian-dl7dh]

U know what not even gonna lie I have t cooked much in my life but this even for myself ….. was great

[@earllvinson9282]

👁️ ILOVEIT I'm having that tonight thank you very much 😉👌

[@NarutoUzumaki-lg6yn]

this man needs a reward

[@sapat664]

We made this last night, and it was deeeeeeelicious. We still have 4 more tilapia in the freezer, so we'll make it again. So flavorful and flaky. Did 400 for 9 minutes, then had to add 3 more minutes at 425. Our air fryer is only 1500W, so maybe that had something to do with it. I have a Dreo 6.8 qt air fryer. In any case, it is a go to now. 👍

[@cookingwithcoit]

Fantastic! So happy to hear you loved this recipe.

[@Ilovedogsandcats2024]

This is my third time I do this recipe.. Very easy and fast..

[@missmayajessica]

Just made for my boyfriend and he loves it!

[@rhke6789]

Love your tasty dishes and simplicity. I love fried food but hate the oil and the mess. Hoping to solve my problem with air frying. I love tempura. Can you do a rcipe for tempura using air fryer? Please. Thank you

[@conneraiello2480]

Adding this recipe to my my future carnivore diet routine!!! I love tilapia!

[@Aphrodite1900]

Lyn from Cyprus here. Saw your air fryer recipe for whole chicken. Looked great, did you use any oil or herbs/spices? Just watched tilapia and have no idea what fish it is although have plenty in the Mediterranean!

[@ladyphoenix9752]

Been making this delish easy talapia Along w asparagus 🥰 .sometimes use a light fish fry coating fr AmZ. 🥰 and when we can find catfish...game on ! 😀

[@rosac8168]

You got me at clean comfort cooking and I clicked subscripe😊

[@lilsmart805]

Love, love this recipe. I did add all the ingredients you recommended plus my own and it came out juicy, tender & delicious... Btw, my tilapia was frozen 😂😂😂 I'm in love withy new Air Fryer GoWise 😀😀😘😘

[@cookingwithcoit]

So glad to hear it 🙌🏻

[@ericahollis3699]

Making mine with frozen too!

[@jonogata]

We have the same air fryer, love it! Could I use this same recipe for mahi mahi? We also have a Hello Fresh meal every night, and since getting the air fryer, I haven’t had to use the oven! Game changer!!! Thanks for the videos, look forward to seeing more.

[@cookingwithcoit]

Hi- Yes you definitely can. What might change is the cooking time but that depends on how thick the mahi mahi filet is. I would start with less cooking time and then add a minute or two on after each time you check it until it is cooked the way you like it. Enjoy!

[@mariaaparecidanunesdeolive9304]

Top. Brasil

[@ameenahmuhammad8016]

Can I cook whitening and flounder the same way

[@fadeyahsabodien1655]

Love your vids and just subscribed:) Thank you! I will be making this tonight! In South Africa and Tilapia is not that common here, I am using Hake. What do you suggest my cooking time should be in a Instant Vortex Air Fryer, 1700W? I can never get this quite right.

[@cookingwithcoit]

Hi- what is the max temperature your air fryer can reach?

[@fadeyahsabodien1655]

@@cookingwithcoit 200°Celsius

[@UltimateKeyboardWarrior]

I just bought the exact air fryer and needed a fish recipe and found this. Subbed and I will be watching more of your recipe videos. Thanks!

[@geogen1426]

I love tilapia! I'm in danger of becoming addicted to your channel.Subscribed!

[@cookingwithcoit]

🙌🏻

[@MaceBo-oShaffer]

Cool 😎

[@Target135]

If I did 2 filets, is it a few minutes more in the fryer? Or double the time?

[@jeromebuse1216]

Great Video will try it asap was the Tilapia Frozen or fresh

[@cookingwithcoit]

Mine was fresh. 🙌🏻

[@dkp_773yeah2]

Awesome recipe video you had me dying laughing when the tilapia came apart 😂

[@nakiflo]

even tho your air fried fish was damaged but i enjoyed your cooking video. thank you!

[@suewalker6636]

hola, looks great!!! why not spray the tray at all? I have not used an air fryer yet. Will be doing calamair strips. Thinking this recipie will work just fine. Thanks, love your videos, oh, hahahaha, no worries from here about your fish falling apart. Cute and funny

[@bananablisss]

I was so happy when it fell apart. I felt like I got to try the food for once.

[@galejohnson8086]

Would be good with Peruvian green sauce!

[@genef1109]

Could you do this recipe in a conventional or convection oven --at what temp and cook for how long?

[@cookingwithcoit]

Hi- I haven’t done it in the oven but I have done it in a pan: cookingwithcoit.com/spicy-lemon-garlic-tilapia/

[@belfanm_chokola2558]

Can you use vegetable oil instead of olive oil

[@valadezjose47]

What are the macros for the Tilapia?

[@Sweetpence]

My experience with Tilapia is that it tends to fall apart but, that's not a tragedy in my book...it's the flavor that counts.

[@jasminepitts3979]

lol, It's okay it's still beautiful!

[@andreamejia9245]

20 minutes for to cook a meal is the best!

[@cookingwithcoit]

I totally agree! And the cost savings of not ordering takeout is great too 😁

[@Eddie-ud4bb]

9 mins 400°

[@Ilovedogsandcats2024]

My AirFryer has this options: 900w 1500w An d 180pw which sould ro choose? Any help, please!

[@cookingwithcoit]

Hi- that’s so strange that your airfryer gives you those options which are more related to power draw than cooking time or temp. Can you send me a link to view the air fryer that you have?

[@AidinZolghadr]

If I want to cook more and put fishes on top of each other (below the max indicator of course) will they still cook even though they will have much less direct contact with the heat?

[@gregorybibbs5571]

do you spray the basket so it doesn't stick

[@cookingwithcoit]

Yes you definitely can!

[@mathbeyondzenoofelea4615]

My Veggie Sister saw a photo of my cooked Tilapia (with Emeril's "Original Essence" spices - sort of like yours) and FREAKED OUT!! HAPPY STYLE, of course. She wants to buy an airfryer....Ha! Ha!

[@cookingwithcoit]

That is awesome!

[@ColinCropley]

what kind of seasoning did you use?

[@cookingwithcoit]

Hi Colin- you can find the full recipe including the seasoning ingredients here: cookingwithcoit.com/air-fryer-tilapia/

[@sapat664]

I have several talapia fillets in the freezer, so this method came at the right moment. Yay! It looks really good. Thanks for sharing. I'll be checking out your other air fryer videos.

[@pierreverdoni]

are you serious???

[@isabelaherrera3995]

Do I need to dry with a paper towel the tilapia? Or is not necessary? :)

[@cookingwithcoit]

It’s best to dry the fish as much as possible before you cook it 👍🏻

[@jamescc2010]

A little problem on grilled fish is that it can stick to pan, and break up easily like what happened here. No biggy. Do I need to flip salmon, a little thicker fish but I am afraid it will fall apart. Thx
