Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Air Fryer Blackened Catfish.
Step 1
Start by preheating your air fryer to a sizzling 400°F (200°C) to get it ready for some delicious catfish.
Step 2
While that heats up, grab a small bowl and mix together melted butter, olive oil, and your favorite blackened seasoning.
Step 3
Whisk these ingredients until they come together into a smooth, flavorful paste that will elevate your fish.
Step 4
Now, take your catfish fillets and generously brush this seasoning mixture on both sides, ensuring every bite is packed with flavor.
Step 5
Once your fillets are well-coated, place them in the air fryer basket in a single layer, giving them enough space to cook evenly.
Step 6
Let the magic happen as you cook the fillets for about 15 minutes, or until they turn a beautiful golden brown and flake easily with a fork.
Step 7
The aroma will fill your kitchen, making it hard to resist! Enjoy your perfectly air-fried catfish, bursting with flavor and ready to impress.
