Step 1
Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 3 minutes.
Step 2
While fryer is preheating, rinse tilapia fillets and pat dry with a paper towel.
Step 3
Combine lemon zest, olive oil, pepper, salt, and garlic in a bowl. Rub spice mixture over the tilapia. Sprinkle lightly with paprika. Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray and place the filets inside, coated side up.
Step 4
Air fry until fish can be flaked with a fork, 7 to 10 minutes. Do not crowd the fish filets; you may need to fry a second batch, depending on the size of your air fryer.
Step 5
Remove tilapia to a plate, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve with lemon wedges.
