This delicious Air Fryer Salmon is ready in about 10 minutes! Learn how to cook salmon in the air fryer for the perfect healthy, quick dinner.
Ingredients
- 4 salmon filets
- Olive oil for drizzling
- 1/2 teaspoon EACH garlic powder onion powder, paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon EACH salt and cumin
Instructions
- Rinse and pat the salmon dry. Place the salmon skin side down on a plate and rub olive oil on top of the salmon
- Combine the spices in a small bowl and sprinkle over the salmon.
- Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F for 3 minutes. Add the salmon skin side down to the air fryer, and cook for 8 minutes to 11 minutes until it flakes easily.
The salmon pictured was done in 8 minutes. Larger pieces of salmon will require more cooking time. I use a meat thermometer and remove the salmon from the air fryer when it reaches 125 degrees F. When salmon is done it will flake easily.
