Air Fryer Crispy Fish Tacos are one of the easiest dinner recipes of all time!

I don’t know about you, but sometimes I need super simple dinners in my life.

There’s a time and place for complicated, extravagant, and homemade recipes… but a busy weeknight is NOT one of them.

So… to make this delicious dinner extra quick and easy, we are using frozen fish fillets!

How to make Air Fryer Crispy Fish Tacos

First place four of the frozen fish fillets in the air fryer.

Get either the beer battered or breaded fillets to fulfil the “crispy” promise in the recipe title.

Then set the air fryer to 400 degrees for 12 to 15 minutes.

While the fish fillets were cooking and crisping in the air fryer I set out some taco toppings.

Shredded lettuce or slaw, cheese, salsa, and sour cream were my toppings of choice.

But go ahead and get crazy adding any of your favorite taco toppings.

Check the fish during the last few minutes, and sprinkle some chili powder over top as well.

Now THAT is crisped to perfection, am I right?!

Then warm some tortillas and cut the fish, if needed, to fit in the tortillas.

I served my family their tacos just like this and everyone added their own toppings.
