Air Fryer Salmon Bites (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
1 pound skinless salmon filet, cut into 1-inch cubes
02 -
½ teaspoon kosher salt
03 -
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
04 -
3 tablespoons melted butter
05 -
1 tablespoon lemon juice
06 -
3 garlic cloves, minced
# Instructions:
01 -
Add the salmon to a mixing bowl and season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine.
02 -
To the same mixing bowl, add the butter, lemon juice, and garlic. Toss to combine.
03 -
Place a liner in the basket of the air fryer (this is key to prevent the sauce from falling through). Add the salmon along with the sauce to the lined basket and air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 5 to 7 minutes. For best results, avoid crowding the salmon and cook in batches if necessary.
04 -
Serve the salmon bites with your favorite sides or top on a salad or macro bowl. Drizzle the remaining garlic lemon butter on top for extra flavor.
# Notes:
01 -
Using a liner in the air fryer basket is essential to prevent the sauce from dripping through.
02 -
No need to shake the basket halfway through cooking.
