Ingredients
- 4 pieces of fish fillets (such as salmon, tilapia, or cod)
- 4 cups bok choy, chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Optional: sesame seeds and green onions for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
- Marinate the Fish: Place the fish fillets in a shallow dish and pour half of the marinade over them. Let the fish marinate for about 15-20 minutes while you prepare the bok choy.
- Prepare the Bok Choy: In a separate bowl, drizzle the chopped bok choy with the remaining marinade. Toss to coat evenly.
- Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
- Cook the Fish: Place the marinated fish fillets in the air fryer basket. Cook for 8-10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Cook the Bok Choy: After removing the fish, add the bok choy to the air fryer basket and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, until tender and slightly crispy.
- Serve: Plate the fish alongside the bok choy. Optionally, sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onions for extra flavor and presentation.
