This Air Fryer Halibut recipe takes the guesswork out of cooking fish. Made with lemon juice and dried herbs, this versatile fish can be paired with tartar sauce, your favorite veggies or over pasta.
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 5-7 minutes. Remove and check if done. Cooking time will depend on the thickness of the fish. 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.
