Air Fried Kampachi

Crunchy outside, flaky inside — air-fried kampachi with a quick homemade dill tartar sauce.

Prep

Preparing kampachi in an air fryer is easy, mess-free, and quick. The result is fish that's crunchy on the outside yet perfectly flaky on the inside — a healthier take on classic fish and chips, served with a homemade tartar sauce.

Method

Directions

  1. 1
    Thaw kampachi overnight in the fridge. Once thawed, remove from the packaging, pat dry, and set on a plate.
  2. 2
    Make the tartar sauce: combine mayo, greek yogurt or sour cream, dill pickles, dill, salt, and pepper in a bowl and set aside in the fridge.
  3. 3
    Combine the flour, panko, cornstarch, paprika, pepper, and salt in a bowl.
  4. 4
    In a separate bowl, beat the 2 eggs.
  5. 5
    Dip the kampachi fillet into the egg, shake off any excess, then place into the flour mixture, patting on the dry mix to coat.
  6. 6
    Repeat the egg-and-dredge twice per fillet for a double coating and a crunchy bite all over.
  7. 7
    Place fillets into the air fryer and spray the top with canola oil. Cook at 400°F for 4 minutes, then flip and spray again with canola oil.
  8. 8
    Cook for another 4 minutes. Once the fish has a crunchy exterior and has reached an internal temperature of 160°F, remove from the air fryer and serve with the homemade tartar sauce.
