Here’s a recipe for Marinated Air Fryer Salmon:
Ingredients:
- 2 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- Fresh herbs (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Marinade:
- In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, honey (or maple syrup), minced garlic, Dijon mustard, black pepper, and paprika until well combined.
2. Marinate the Salmon:
- Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag.
- Pour the marinade over the salmon, making sure each piece is well coated.
- Seal the bag (or cover the dish) and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours for more flavor.
3. Preheat the Air Fryer:
- Set your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) and let it preheat for about 5 minutes.
4. Air Fry the Salmon:
- Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking oil.
- Place the marinated salmon fillets in the basket, skin-side down if applicable.
- Cook for 8-10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets. The salmon should be opaque and flake easily with a fork.
5. Serve:
- Remove the salmon from the air fryer and garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or dill if desired.
- Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes like roasted veggies or rice.
Tips:
- You can double the marinade ingredients if you’re cooking more fillets.
- For extra crispness, lightly brush the salmon with olive oil before air frying.
Enjoy your Marinated Air Fryer Salmon!
