Instructions

Homemade Fish Sticks

Cut the fish fillets into sticks. You can make them as small or large as you like.
Add flour, whisked eggs and breadcrumbs to three separate bowls or plates.
Dip a piece of fish into the flour, and coat thoroughly. Then, coat it with egg, and lastly with breadcrumbs. Repeat the process with every fish stick.
Place the fish sticks in the air fryer. Cook at 360 F / 180 C for about 7-10 minutes, or until the breading is golden and the fish has cooked through. Flip the fish sticks once halfway through cooking to ensure that they cook evenly.

Frozen Fish Sticks

Air fry at 360 F / 180 C for about 15 minutes. Turn them once halfway through cooking. The breading should be golden and crispy, and the fish should be warm and tender.

Notes
