📝 Preparation Steps
1
Set the air fryer to 400°F using the Air Fryer setting to preheat. Pat your salmon filets dry with a paper towel, then lightly brush or spray with olive oil.
2
Whisk all the remaining ingredients together in a small bowl to create a wet rub. Brush it on the tops and sides of the salmon. Lightly spritz the salmon with olive oil if you have a sprayer (this is my FAV).
3
Spray the air fryer basket with nonstick cooking spray. Arrange the salmon filets in a single layer without touching, skin-side down (you may need to work in batches). Air fry until the internal temperature reaches 135°F, about 7 to ⏱️ 10 minutes, depending on the thickness.
4
Serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, freshly cracked salt as desired, or any of the suggested serving options. Enjoy!
