For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a dash of hot sauce to the chipotle slaw. Ensure the fish fillets are completely dry before coating to help the breading adhere better. If you don't have an air fryer, you can bake the fish in a preheated oven at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for about 12-15 minutes, or until cooked through.
