Description
Discover how to make mouthwatering Crispy Air Fryer Salmon Bites with this easy recipe. Perfectly crispy on the outside, tender on the inside!
Ingredients
- 1 lb (454 g) salmon filets
- 2 tsp (10 ml) olive oil
- 2 tsp (10 ml) Lemon Pepper Seasoning (no salt added) – Kinders brand
- 1 tsp (5 ml) garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp (2.5 ml) smoked paprika
- 1 tsp (5 ml) kosher salt
Instructions
- Slice the salmon into bite-sized pieces using a sharp knife. Transfer these pieces to a large bowl and coat them with olive oil. Mix the lemon pepper seasoning, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and kosher salt, then apply this blend generously onto the salmon chunks, ensuring they are well coated.
- Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees. Arrange the seasoned salmon pieces in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for approximately 8 to 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking process to ensure even cooking. For enhanced flavor, serve with fresh lemon slices.
- Store any leftover salmon in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 2 days. To reheat, preheat the air fryer and then place the salmon pieces inside, cooking them for 2-3 minutes at 365 degrees.
Notes
- For a healthier option, use avocado oil instead of olive oil for a unique flavor.
- Experiment with various seasoning blends to discover your preferred salmon combination.
- To avoid overcooking, monitor the salmon halfway through cooking and adjust for desired doneness.
