Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- Garnish with fresh chopped parsley
Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 400 degrees F for about 3-5 minutes. Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel, this helps it crisp up nicely!
- In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt and pepper. Brush evenly over the salmon fillets.
- Place 2 salmon fillets skin-side down in the air fryer basket. Cook for 7-9 minutes, depending on the thickness. Repeat with the remaining two fillets. You'll know the salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork. Salmon should read 125-130 degrees F for medium or 140 for well done on a meat thermometer.
- Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and a sprinkle of parsley. Enjoy!
