Bang Bang Air Fryer Fish Sticks
If you don't think fish sticks are delicious, you are probably picturing the soggy, flavorless kind the school cafeteria served up, or the mediocre kind you can buy at the grocery store's freezer section. We are here to prove that fish sticks can be crispy (but not fried) and full of flavor! This Bang Bang Air Fryer Fish Sticks recipe features Member's Mark™ Bang Bang Seasoning, which is subtly spicy and sweet at the same time (this adds a lot of dimension to your typical fish stick recipe)! Plus, these are made in the air fryer, so they're crispy, crunchy, and not dripping in oil. Winner winner, fish stick dinner!
Ingredients
- 1½ lbs Skinless wild cod, sea bass, halibut, or haddock fillets, thawed if frozen
- 2 large Eggs, beaten
- 2 tbsp Member's Mark™ Bang Bang Seasoning (you can add as much seasoning as you prefer), divided
- 1 cup +2 tbsp Panko bread crumbs
- Olive oil spray
- ¼ cup Light mayonnaise
Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 400℉.
- Cut the fish into 16 sticks, about 4 x 1 inches.
- In a medium bowl, combine eggs and ½ tbsp Member's Mark™ Bang Bang Seasoning.
- In a second bowl, combine the Panko crumbs with ½ tbsp Member's Mark™ Bang Bang Seasoning (use more seasoning if desired).
- Dip the fish into the egg mixture, then the Panko. Set aside.
- Transfer fish sticks to the air fryer basket (in batches as needed) and spray both sides with olive oil. Air fry for about 8 minutes, flipping fish at the 4 minute mark, and cook until golden and crisp.
- For even more Bang Bang flavor, combine ¼ cup of light mayonnaise with 1 tbsp of Member's Mark™ Bang Bang Seasoning. This makes a delicious dipping sauce!
