Homemade Air Fryer Fish Fingers

These crispy homemade air fryer Fish Fingers have just 6 ingredients including the fish! The recipe is gluten-free and eggless too and includes an easy dijon remoulade sauce for serving.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound wild caught cod loin* cut into strips about 1/2″ x 2″
  • 3/4 cup gluten-free breadcrumbs, or regular breadcrumbs if preferred
  • 2 tablespoons ground flax seed
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley, or 1/2 teaspoon dried
  • cooking spray

For the remoulade dipping sauce

  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, **see note
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced red onion
  • 3 round pickles, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon capers
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat air fryer to 400°F.
  2. Combine the breadcrumbs, ground flax seed, salt, pepper and parsley in a shallow bowl.
  3. Spray each strip of cod with cooking spray then place in the bowl with the breadcrumbs. Turn and press down on each side until well coated. Place the fish stick on the air fryer tray or in the basket depending on model. Repeat with remaining fish sticks.
  4. Spritz the tops of the prepared fish sticks with more cooking spray then bake for 10 minutes until crispy on the outside.
  5. Prepare the remoulade by combining all the ingredients in a small bowl and stirring together.
  6. Serve the air fried fish sticks with lemon wedges, fresh parsley and the remoulade sauce.

Notes

Cod loin is preferable to cod filet as it’s a thicker cut and lends itself better to fish sticks. Tilapia or another white fish can be substituted.
