Notes

For a more accurate cooking time, preheating your air fryer is highly recommended.
If you're air fryer doesn't have a preheating option, set your cooking temperature to 380°F (193°C) and let it run for 4-5 minutes without food.
If you're using a second layer rack when making your fish and chips, you may need more time to cook them. Additionally, you may need to remove the rack if you want to shake the fries. In short, it’s more of a hassle. This is where a two-basket air fryer comes in handy.
Avoid overlapping battered fish filets as some parts may be undercooked.
Fish should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
If you are making more than a pound of fries, it is recommended to cook them for 14-16 minutes. Additionally, it is best to only fill one-third of the air fryer basket for optimal results. A half-full air fryer basket of fries may take more than 20 minutes to cook.
Avoid shaking the fries while they are still soggy, as this may break them apart.
Be careful when flipping the fish, as its meat is too delicate and the crust may fall off. Wait for the crust to set before turning the fish filets.
I used a 6-quart Instant Pot Vortex Plus to air fry frozen fish and chips. Cooking time and temperature may vary depending on your air fryer and the number of servings you are making. For optimal results, begin with the lower end of the suggested cooking time.
