Easy Gorton’s Fish Fillets In Air Fryer
A Gortons Fish fillets de poisson is derived from the French term filet, which means thread or strip in English. We’ll be looking at how to prepare and cook Gortons Fish Fillets in a Cosori air fryer or any other brand you want.
For today’s meal, I only used Gortons brand fish fillets; there will be no difference if you use any other fish fillets; just the size of your fillets will affect the cooking time.
The air fryer makes for the perfect way to cook these whole fish fillets from Gorton’s. The hot circulating air makes the exterior shell fabulously crunchy; not to mention minimizing that mushy separating later between fish and coating that’s all too common in this type of frozen product.
CAN YOU COOK GORTONS FROZEN FISH FILLETS IN AIRFRYER?
Yes, you can create Gortons Frozen Fish Fillets in an air fryer! You can almost do anything in an air fryer as long as you know what you’re doing. All of these items, from Frozen Onion Rings to Phillips Frozen Crab Cakes, are safe to cook in your air fryer.
WHAT COLOR SHOULD COOKED FISH BE?
If you can easily flake the fish with a fork, it’s done, and it should be opaque rather than translucent. Though I must point out that the color of the fish varies depending on the variety; cooked salmon and cooked tilapia, for example, are not the same hue. The best technical way to verify that your fish is completely cooked is to use a kitchen thermometer to confirm that it has achieved a minimum safe internal temperature of 145F.

CAN YOU REHEAT GORTONS FROZEN FISH FILLETS IN AN AIR FRYER?
Yes, you can definitely reheat frozen salmon in the air fryer. The size of the fish fillets you’ll be reheating will determine the cooking time and temperature. In general, warm your air fryer for around 5 minutes at 350 degrees F. Then spray your remaining cooked fish with cooking oil spray and air fried it for 3 to 5 minutes at 350 degrees F.
CAN YOU COOK FROZEN FISH IN THE AIR FRYER WITH NO BREADING?
Yes! To air fry frozen white fish, simply coat it in oil and seasonings before placing it in your air fryer to cook. Because the whitefish is so skinny, it will stick to your air fryer if you don’t add some fat, which is why you’ll need to add some.
HOW TO MAKE FROZEN FISH IN AIR FRYER GLUTEN-FREE?
The best approach to keep your frozen fish gluten-free is to buy fish that hasn’t been breaded or fish that has been breaded with gluten-free breading. Starfish and Ian’s are two well-known gluten-free frozen breaded fish brands that I recommend.
HOW TO COOK AIR FRYER FROZEN FISH FILLETS (RAW)
Frozen fish fillets are better air fried than baked because the hot circulating air makes the fillets crispy without the need for oil. Add some tartar sauce and a few lemon slices and you’re done! It goes well with the fresh lemon juice and dip.

BENEFITS
Adults should aim for two servings of seafood per week, according to general nutrition guidelines. Unfortunately, the majority of Americans do not meet that standard. If some frozen breaded fish gets you eating more seafood, I’m all for it!
Yes, store-bought frozen breaded fish fillets are high in processed ingredients. In general, making your own breaded fish is preferable. However, before you dismiss these products, consider the following advantages:
- Fast: With this recipe, your fish will be ready in 12 minutes. The air fryer doesn’t even need to be preheated. If you’re hungry right now, I believe this will be a healthier option than many fried fish fast food options.
- No Prep: This “recipe” requires no measuring, chopping, or shopping for a long list of ingredients; all you need is a box of fish to make it. (However, having tartar sauce and side dishes on hand is advised.)
- Great for Novice Cooks: If you’re new to cooking, this recipe should boost your confidence. It’s a piece of cake! I hope it inspires you to continue cooking and experiment with more complex dishes in the future.
- Perfect for Picky Eaters: Picky eaters frequently refuse fish but accept bread and grain group foods. Breaded fish can bridge the gap between picky eaters and seafood. (Serve the air fryer “fried” fish with a dip to increase the likelihood that it will be accepted!)
