Description

Trader Joe's Battered Fish Nuggets cooked from frozen in the air fryer at 400°F — crispy in about 10 minutes, no thawing and no added oil.

Ingredients 

  • 16 ounces Trader Joe's Battered Fish Nuggets, frozen
  • 1/4 cup tartar sauce

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer to 400°F for 3–5 minutes.
  • Place the frozen fish nuggets in a single layer in the basket or on the tray, leaving space between them. Work in two batches for a 5–6 quart basket.
  • Air fry at 400°F for 10–12 minutes, flipping at 6 minutes.
  • Cook until the batter is deep golden and the center reaches 145°F on an instant-read thermometer.
  • Serve right away with tartar sauce and lemon.

Equipment

  • Air Fryer
  • Cooking Spray
  • Parchment Paper, optional

Notes

  • Do not thaw. Do not add oil — they're already par-fried.
  • Air fryer oven: use the lowest rack and rotate the tray halfway.
  • Reheat leftovers at 350°F for 3–4 minutes.
  • Contains fish, wheat, and milk.
