Notes
Prep Tips - Cook the fish according to the package instructions. When air frying the battered fish filets, work in batches as to not overcrowd. You want to leave room between the filets to get every edge crispy. (This applies for baking in the oven too, make sure the filets are not touching on the baking sheet.) We usually air fry on 400F for 8-10 minutes or until the fish is cooked and the breading is golden brown. Larger fish filets will take closer to 11 minutes to air fry.
Lime Crema Sauce Tip - Add more or less lime juice so the yogurt sauce is thin enough to drizzle over the tostadas. Depending on the type of yogurt used, this varies.
