Ingredients
- 1 sea bass fillet, 6-10 ounces
- 1-2 teaspoons olive oil
- Kosher salt
- Black pepper
- Lemon wedges
- Optional: garlic powder, paprika, oregano, parsley, or lemon zest
Instructions
- Preheat Preheat the air fryer to 375°F for about 3 minutes.
- Prepare the fish Pat the sea bass dry. Rub lightly with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and any optional seasonings.
- Air fry Place the fish in the basket skin-side down, if skin-on. Cook without flipping for 8-10 minutes, depending on thickness.
- Check doneness The fish should flake easily and remain moist in the center. For a tender restaurant-style result, remove it around 130-135°F; for a more fully cooked texture, take it to 140-145°F.
- Finish Squeeze lemon over the fish and finish with a small drizzle of olive oil or melted butter. For extra browning, raise the heat to 400°F for the final 1-2 minutes.
