How Long to Air Fry Fish Fillets (Frozen, breaded)

Air fry fish fillets (frozen, breaded) at 400°F (200°C) for 10-13 minutes. Exact settings, when to shake, and how to tell when it is done.

400°F for 10 to 13 minutes, shake at 6.

  1. 1

    Preheat the air fryer to 400°F for 3 minutes.

  2. 2

    Arrange the fish fillets (frozen, breaded) in a single layer with space between pieces. Crowding traps steam and stops browning.

  3. 3

    Air fry for 10 to 13 minutes, shaking or flipping at the 6-minute mark.

  4. 4

    Start checking at 10 minutes. Every air fryer runs a little differently.

Use these settings as a starting point; thickness, quantity, and appliance model affect timing. How to use our cooking guides.

Worth knowing. Do not flip early — coating breaks.
