INSTRUCTIONS
- Slice your filets into
5-inch -long pieces so you have about 10 pieces. Pat dry with a paper towel. Season with salt and garlic powder. - Prepare three separate bowls of all-purpose flour, panko breadcrumbs and beaten eggs. First coat each fillet in all-purpose flour, then eggs, and lastly panko.
- Transfer coated filets to air fryer basket (you may need to divide into two batches depending on the size of your air fryer). Make sure there’s enough space around each filet. Spray
1 teaspoon of oil over top. Air fry at 400 degrees F for 12 minutes in total - flipping over halfway spraying oil on the other side as well. For deep frying instructions, please refer to NOTES sections below. - Meanwhile, fill a large pot with water halfway and season with
1 tablespoon of salt. Bring to boil and add your pasta. Boil for 10 minutes or until Al-Dente texture. Strain immediately. Then place pasta back into large pot and set aside to keep warm. - In a large saucepan on medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add flour, and mix well until incorporated. Add minced garlic, salt, milk, and chicken stock. Whisk constantly until the sauce bubbles and thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
- Once sauce has thickened, pour cream sauce into pot with pasta. Mix pasta with sauce.
- Plate your pasta and add cooked fish fillets over top. Optional garnish, sprinkle dried parsley flakes over top. Enjoy!

Notes
- To deep fry the fish, fill a pot or wok with
2 cups of vegetable oil and bring to medium heat. To test if oil is hot enough, place a wooden chopstick and look for bubbles to form at the end. Carefully add coated fish filet into hot oil, half a batch at a time. Fry until golden brown, 6-8 minutes in total, flipping over halfway. Transfer fried fish to cooling rack to allow excess oil to drip.
