We recently had salmon cooked in my new air fryer, and it was amazing! You can easily convert just about any salmon recipe to this cooking method. I am sharing the recipe I used.
Moist and delicious salmon cooked in air fryer |
Ingredients
- about 1 lb. salmon
- 1 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
- ½ cup sun-dried tomato vinaigrette*
- ¼ cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
Directions
Combine parsley, vinaigrette*, tomatoes, and garlic. Place in fridge for at least 1 hour, and up to 24 hours, to blend flavors.
*To easily make your own vinaigrette, pulse the following in a blender: ¼ cup sun-dried tomatoes, ¼ cup oil from sun-dried tomatoes, and 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar.
Pat salmon dry and season lightly with salt and pepper. Spritz lightly with olive oil. Preheat air fryer to 390°F on the roast setting. Place salmon in fryer skin side down. Cook until done, about 7 to 8 minutes. Top salmon with sauce abut half way through cook time.
Since the sauce I used is a basting sauce, I had put some of it on the salmon at the start of the cook time. The air fryer made it a bit too crisp for our liking (if you enlarge the photo, you can see the crispy and less crisp topping difference). Therefore, I suggest adding it during the cook time, instead of at the start--unless you want your sauce super crispy!
Enjoy!
