You can slide them into a sandwich with your favorite toppings, slice them in quarters and fold them into tacos, or serve them alongside a green salad. When I have leftover fish in the fridge, I like to make these easy fish patties in the air fryer. #### Air Fryer Fish Patties Makes 4 patties Ingredients 10-12 oz. leftover cooked fish, flaked (canned salmon works also) 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped 3 tbsp Thai sweet chili sauce 2 tbsp mayonnaise 1 egg, beaten 2/3 cup bread crumbs (I use seasoned bread crumbs for this recipe) Directions Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and shape into 4 patties. Coat with baking spray. Spray bottom of air fryer basket with baking spray, or cut a piece of baking parchment a little smaller than your air fryer basket and use a hole punch to perforate it. Place in air fryer basket. Add patties to air fryer. Bake at 400° for 9 to 10 minutes.   > [Click to tweet: > Fish patties are a simple, frugal, and surprisingly versatile way to serve a meatless meal. #catholicmom](https://ctt.ac/d7cbS) [![Download printable recipe card](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/275132/08437755-9166-4dcd-9d5b-69839a16ae5a.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/275132/08437755-9166-4dcd-9d5b-69839a16ae5a)   [![See our full list of Meatless Friday recipes](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/275132/78e80fc5-0f87-4e45-9328-c9be5b685c01.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/275132/78e80fc5-0f87-4e45-9328-c9be5b685c01)   ![null](https://www.catholicmom.com/hs-fs/hubfs/20220826%20BSzyszkiewicz%201.jpg?width=1080&name=20220826%20BSzyszkiewicz%201.jpg) --- Copyright 2022 Barb Szyszkiewicz Images: copyright 2022 Barb Szyszkiewicz, all rights reserved. ### Share this article [![Share on Facebook](https://static.hubspot.com/final/img/common/icons/social/facebook-24x24.png)](http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.catholicmom.com%2Farticles%2Fmeatless-friday-air-fryer-fish-patties%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dfacebook) [![Share on Twitter](https://static.hubspot.com/final/img/common/icons/social/twitter-24x24.png)](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?original_referer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.catholicmom.com%2Farticles%2Fmeatless-friday-air-fryer-fish-patties%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.catholicmom.com%2Farticles%2Fmeatless-friday-air-fryer-fish-patties%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&source=tweetbutton&text=Meatless%20Friday%3A%20Air%20Fryer%20Fish%20Patties) [![Share on Email](https://static.hubspot.com/final/img/common/icons/social/email-24x24.png)](mailto:?subject=Check%20out%20https%3A%2F%2Fwww.catholicmom.com%2Farticles%2Fmeatless-friday-air-fryer-fish-patties%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Demail%20&body=Check%20out%20https%3A%2F%2Fwww.catholicmom.com%2Farticles%2Fmeatless-friday-air-fryer-fish-patties%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Demail) ** #### About the Author ![Barb Szyszkiewicz](https://www.catholicmom.com/hubfs/BSzyszkiewicz%202022.jpg) ### [Barb Szyszkiewicz](https://www.catholicmom.com/articles/author/barb-szyszkiewicz-ofs) Barb Szyszkiewicz, senior editor at [CatholicMom.com](http://catholicmom.com), is a wife, mom of 3 young adults, and a Secular Franciscan.
