- 1 1/2 lbs cod fillet
- Kosher salt

- lemon wedges
- snipped chives
Prepare
- Beat 3 large egg whites
- 3/8 lbs salt-and-vinegar potato chips, finely crushed
- Olive oil, for misting or brushing
Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Cut the cod fillet into equal-size pieces. If the tail ends are thinner, fold them in half and secure with a toothpick.
-
Step 2.
Place the beaten egg whites in a shallow bowl. Put the finely crushed salt-and-vinegar potato chips in another shallow bowl. Dip each piece of cod first into the egg whites, then into the crushed chips, pressing gently to help the coating adhere.
-
Step 3.
Lightly spray or brush the coated fish pieces with olive oil on all sides.
-
Step 4.
Preheat the air fryer to 350°F. Working in 2 batches to avoid overcrowding, place the fish pieces in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Air fry until golden brown and opaque throughout, 8 to 10 minutes.
-
Step 5.
Sprinkle the cooked fish with kosher salt. Serve immediately with tartar sauce, lemon wedges, and snipped chives.
