Cooking Basa Fillet in Air Fryer
Basa fillet is a popular and versatile fish that cooks well in an air fryer. The cooking time for basa fillet in an air fryer typically ranges from 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillet.
Step-by-Step Guide
1. **Preparation**: Start by patting the basa fillet dry with paper towels and season it with your favorite herbs and spices. Preheating the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) is also essential.
2. **Cooking**: Place the seasoned basa fillet in the air fryer basket and cook it for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, check the internal temperature of the fillet. It should register at least 145°F (63°C) to ensure it is fully cooked.
3. **Adjusting Time**: If the fillet is not cooked through, continue cooking in 2-3 minute increments until it reaches the desired temperature. Be careful not to overcook the fish, as it can become dry.
4. **Serving**: Once the basa fillet is cooked to perfection, carefully remove it from the air fryer and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. You can squeeze some fresh lemon juice over the fillet for a burst of flavor.
