If you prefer to get fresh snapper from the fish markets, which is usually sold as a whole fish, then you will need to clean and fillet the snapper yourself. Use a fork to scrap of any remaining scales. While doing this, run your fingers along the skin to make sure that all the scales have been removed. Then all you need to do is give them a quick rinse and pat them dry before adding the seasoning. Therefore, it is recommended to use air fryer parchment paper or silicone air fryer liners to make removal of the snapper fillets easy.īuying and preparing: Look for snapper fillets in your local seafood market or supermarket as they are cleaned and usually descaled. This especially applicable to fish because fish meat is delicate when cooked so it will pull apart if any bit of meat is stuck to the basket. This makes removing the food in one piece a little tricky.

Otherwise, your snapper will get steamed, unevenly cooked, or even undercooked. Overcrowding your air fryer is a big no-no: When placing the fish in the basket, make sure they’re evenly spread in one layer and not stacked. As for the sauces, my favorites are dill sauce and tartar sauce. But that doesn’t mean you can’t spice things up if you want to! There are some seasonings I suggest you try with air fried snapper, such as smoked paprika, cumin, chili powder (if you don’t mind the heat!), and capers. Give your own little touch: When I created this recipe, I made sure the ingredients were simple and handy so more people could easily follow it. Use fresh fish: I personally prefer to use fresh fish fillet for the best results possible, but if you have to, good-quality frozen fish fillet will be just fine.
