Carly's Paleo Fish (Air Fryer Addition)

I loveeeeee my air fryer. Can anyone relate? In honor of the giving season, I thought I would share this fun recipe and remind you that if you haven't already invested in one, maybe you should consider an air fryer for the health freak in your life? Enjoy these air-fried fish sticks with homemade aioli. YUM!

I eat fish because I know it's "good for me."  I don't love the taste of any fish.  Sometimes a preparation will taste better than another, but in general, I could pass on it altogether.  But you wouldn't know any of that if you watched my eating habits.  I eat fish at least 4 times per week.  I'm always looking for EASY ways to make it exciting and taste LESS like fish.  This preparation even got a thumbs up from the biggest fish critic I know---my hubs!

Ingredients

2 six-ounce cod fillets (you could also use lemon sole, halibut or pollack) 

1/2 cup almond flour (I don't recommend trying tapioca or arrowroot)

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon garlic salt

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon paprika

1/2 teaspoon pepper

1/8 teaspoon cayenne

1 egg

Cooking spray

Directions

Cut each fish fillet into about 3 or 4 pieces

Clean pieces and thoroughly pat dry

Make the batter next - simply combine all the batter ingredients and stir well

Wisk egg and a small amount of water

Dip fish in batter, then egg, then batter again

Cook 5 minutes and then flip over and cook for an additional 5 minutes 

Sprinkle with sea salt and serve
