Description

Discover how to make delicious Cajun Salmon Bites in the air fryer with this easy recipe. Perfectly crispy and flavorful – a must-try for seafood lovers!


Ingredients

  • 454 g fresh salmon (bite-size pieces)
  • 15 ml vegetable oil
  • 2 tsp (10 ml) Cajun seasoning


Instructions

  1. With a sharp blade, slice the skinless salmon into cubes about 1 ½ inches in size, and then use a paper towel to dry them thoroughly, removing any extra moisture.
  2. Transfer the salmon cubes into a large mixing bowl, drizzle with vegetable oil, and stir until each piece is thoroughly coated.
  3. Sprinkle the Cajun seasoning over the salmon and mix well, ensuring every piece is evenly covered.
  4. Prepare the air fryer basket by lining it with parchment paper or greasing it with oil. Cook the salmon in the air fryer at 400°F for approximately 12 minutes.

Notes

  • Ensure the salmon is thoroughly dried before coating with oil to help the seasoning adhere better during cooking.
  • Don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket to ensure the salmon cooks evenly and crisps up nicely.
  • Adjust the cooking time based on the thickness of the salmon pieces to avoid overcooking.
