Ingredients
The salmon:
- 1 tablespoon paprika sweet
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon oregano dried
- 1 teaspoon thyme dried
- ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
- olive oil spray form
- 4 (6 oz each) wild salmon fillets
The salsa:
- 2 tablespoons onion red, chopped
- 1 ½ tablespoons lemon juice fresh
- 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
- ¼ + ⅛ teaspoon kosher salt
- black pepper freshly ground
- 4 cucumber diced, Persian type, mini
- 6 ounces avocado diced, Hass type, 1 large
Instructions
The salmon:
- In a small bowl, combine the paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, oregano, thyme, salt and black pepper.
- Spray both sides fo the fish with oil and rub all over. Coat the fish all over with the spices.
- Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F.
- Working in batches, arrange the salmon fillets skin side down in the air fryer basket.
- Cook until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 5 to 7 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish. (For a toaster oven-style air fryer, the temperature and timing remain the same.)
- Serve topped with the salsa.
The salsa:
