Equipment
Ingredients
- 6 ounce cod fillet
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
- pinch salt
- pinch black pepper
- ¼ lemon
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer for 5 minutes at 400 degrees F.
- While air fryer preheats, remove the cod from packaging if needed. Place on a plate and drizzle with olive oil. Rub the olive oil all over the surface of the cod.
- Season cod with salt and pepper, then sprinkle dried oregano all over the cod.
- Place in air fryer basket and cook for 8 minutes at 380 degrees F, then flip and cook for another 6-8 minutes, or until cod reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees F.
- Plate and squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top of the cod.
Notes
-
- Cook time will depend on the thickness of your cod. This is why I highly recommend a meat thermometer to check and see when the internal temperature of your cod reaches 145 degrees F.
-
- You can easily cook more cod fillets at the same time if you're cooking for 2, 3, or 4 people, just make sure there is a little room between them for the air to circulate.
-
- If your frozen cod is wrapped in plastic, make sure all the plastic is removed before seasoning and cooking.
-
- Sometimes frozen cod can dry out a little in the air fryer if you don't watch it carefully. If this happens, definitely serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a sauce.
