Equipment

  • air fryer
  • tongs for flipping

Ingredients

  • 12-16 frozen fish sticks
  • 1 spray cooking oil (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat your air fryer to 400°F for 2–3 minutes.
  • Arrange frozen fish sticks in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
  • Lightly spray with oil if desired for extra crispiness.
  • Cook at 400°F for 8–10 minutes.
  • Flip the fish sticks halfway through cooking (around 4–5 minutes).
  • Remove once golden and crispy, then serve immediately.

Notes

Cook directly from frozen for best texture. Do not overcrowd the basket to avoid soggy coating. Lightly spray with oil for extra crispiness. Flip halfway through cooking for even browning.
