Notes

  • Rub in the Spices: Make sure to rub the oil and spices in before adding the salmon to the air fryer for the best flavor.

  • Use Fresh or Frozen Salmon: Fresh salmon is always my preferance, but if you’re using frozen, be sure to thaw it completely and pat it dry before seasoning. Cooking frozen salmon without thawing can lead to uneven results.

  • Cook Everything at Once: If you have a large air fryer, toss in some halved asparagus, broccoli florets, or zucchini coins with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt to cook alongside the salmon for a complete meal. Don't overcrowd the basket though! Storage: Store leftover salmon in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for 3-4 minutes to keep it crispy.
