Recipe Tips

Here are some tips to make the most out of your air fryer frozen fish sticks:

• Place the fish sticks in a single layer with enough space between them, so the air can circulate in the basket. This ensures even cooking and perfect crispiness. Avoid overlapping them or crowding the basket.
• For extra crispiness, spray the fish sticks with pure oil spray before air frying them.
• Turn the fish sticks over after half the cooking time is over. If your air fryer has racks, rotate them too for even cooking.
• The cooking time provided in my recipe is for regular fish sticks. If you’re using larger frozen fish or beer-battered fish, add a few extra minutes to the cooking time.

By following these tips, you’ll be able to make delicious and crispy air fryer frozen fish sticks that everyone will love!
