Instructions
Preheat air fryer to 400 or if there is no preheat setting, just set to 400 and let it come to temperature for about 3-4 minutes.
Prepare fish: Sprinkle each filet with Cajun seasoning and a little salt. Brush each piece with a light layer of mayo. Dip each piece in panko and place on air fryer tray or basket.
Air fry fish for 15-20 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 145. Time will depend on how thick your fish is.
While fish is cooking, make the lemon mayo. Combine all ingredients and stir well. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Slather each bun (top and bottom) with lemon mayo. Top with fish and any other toppings. Serve immediately!
Notes
Note 1: I have used soft rolls, potato rolls, Brioche buns, crusty french bread and cheap store bought burger buns and they all work! Use your favorite!
