step 1
Pat Skin-On Barramundi Fillets (4) dry with a paper towel. Lightly season with Salt (1/2 tsp) and Ground Black Pepper (to taste).

Preheat oven to 235 degrees C (455 degrees F) air-fry plus. Pour mixture into a small saucepan and heat on the stove. Stir for a few minutes, remove from heat when aromatic. Transfer to a bowl to cool down.

When the marinade mixture is cool, coat barramundi fillets on all sides. Marinade for at least 1 hour. Sprinkle Corn Flour (2 Tbsp) on all sides before baking.
step 5
