Absolutely! Using the same ingredients and instructions as provided for the air fryer halibut place the halibut on a foil lined baking sheet and place in a pre heated oven at 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake for 10-20 minutes until the fish flakes easily with a fork or reads 135 degrees Fahrenheit with a meat thermometer.
“At the market, look for white, glossy flesh, avoiding any cuts that look dull, yellowish or dried out. Halibut also retains moisture well when frozen.” Check out this blog post on Food Network for more information. We use fresh caught for this air fryer halibut recipe.
I have the COSORI Air Fryer Oven Combo 5.8QT Max XL Large Cooker, linked here. I do find it is pretty loud in the kitchen but it gets the job done and makes perfect air fryer halibut. We have had it for years without any issues.
We use our air fryer all the time for recipes like Air Fryer Blackened Chicken and Cinnamon Cream Cheese Roll Ups.
These are the main ingredients and substitutions. See recipe card below for full ingredients list and instructions for Air Fryer Halibut.
Halibut: “At the market, look for white, glossy flesh, avoiding any cuts that look dull, yellowish or dried out. Halibut also retains moisture well when frozen.” We use fresh caught, vacuum sealed and frozen halibut that my in-laws or husband catch every summer. While I do understand that is not available to everyone you can definitely find some great quality fish in stores. You can substitue with other white fish like tilapia or cod. Do note the filet thickness prior to cooking and adjust the time as needed.
Seasonings: dried dill, garlic powder, salt and pepper are the only seasonings used in this recipe. You can spice it up with some chili powder or cayenne pepper.
Lemon: lemon adds the perfect amount of tang to the fish.
Preheat your air fryer.
While the air fryer heats, prep your halibut filets by patting dry and cutting into serving sizes as desired. You can cut into 4 – 4 oz. filets or 2 – 8 oz. filets.
Top filets with fresh squeezed lemon juice. Evenly cover the filets with dried dill, garlic powder, salt and pepper and place in a foil lined air fryer tray skin side down. Be sure to spray the foil with non stick spray before placing the filets on top. If your halibut has skin on, the skin will stick to the foil when you take it out, this is ok. If you filets do not have skin be sure to coat the foil well with non stick spray or oil.
Air fry the filets at 350 for 6 minutes. Remove and check if done. The thicker the filets the longer you will need to cook them. I suggest started with 6 minutes (thinner filets will be done at this time) and cook for 3 minute increments after until fully cooked.
The filets pictured were about 2″ thick and took approximately 12 minutes to cook through.
Note: every air fryer temp and time will vary. The air fryer halibut is done when it fakes with a fork.
You can serve this air fryer halibut with Greek Yogurt Mashed Potatoes, sauteed vegetables, rice or even make fish tacos, burgers and sandwiches.
