The lemon-herb sauce is the perfect way to bring zest to each bite.
Be sure to cook the scallops to temperature.
Avocado crema helps balance the flavors, while shredded cabbage slaw adds crunch.
Serve with air-fried zucchini fries (see associated recipe).
It’s an impressive dinner that’s also super simple to make.
If you might’t find fresh horseradish, use a high-quality prepared product.

Be sure to drain and squeeze it to remove as much moisture as possible.
Serve the crispy cutlets with a side salad.
Air-Fryer Popcorn Shrimp
These air-fried popcorn shrimp get crispy and crunchy with very little oil.
Any white fish will work, so select what looks freshest at the best price.
The squeeze of lime at the end really brings everything together perfectly, so don’t skip it.
Air-Fryer Chicken Tenders
These air-fryer chicken tenders will have you ditching the store-bought version in no time.
Lightly flavored with Italian seasoning, these chicken tenders cook up extra crispy in the air fryer.
We love them paired with honey mustard, but ketchup or ranch dressing will work well too.

The tilapia is moist and flaky and gets brightened up with lemon zest and fresh herbs.
Medium-size scallops and bacon cut on the thinner side work best here.
Using an air fryer works well too and cuts back on calories.
