Ingredients
marinade
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/3 cup light brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ginger grated
- 3 garlic about 1 tablespoon, minced cloves
salmon and assembly
- 2 (4 ounce) salmon fillet skin-on, boneless
- 2 tablespoons chili crisp optional
- 1 tablespoon peanuts minced, dry roasted
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds toasted
- 1 green onion thinly sliced
Instructions
- Whisk all marinade ingredients into a small bowl.
- Cut into each fillet (in 1 inch increments) until you get to the skin, making sure not to pierce through the skin. Transfer fillets to a resealable bag.
- Pour half the marinade over fillets and tightly seal the bag.
- Marinate salmon for at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours.
- Remove salmon from marinade and pat dry.
- Lightly spray air fryer basket with cooking spray (avocado oil is our preference) and add salmon fillets (on their side), curling each fillet. Lightly spray the tops of the salmon.
- Air fry at 380˚F for 8 minutes. While the salmon is cooking, pour the remaining marinade into a small pot and simmer for 5-6 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the chili crisp, if using.
- Remove salmon from air fryer and serve, skin-side down with steamed rice. Spoon reduced marinade/glaze over reach fillet and top with crushed peanuts, toasted sesame seeds and green onion. Serve.
