Place the salmon fillets in a shallow baking dish and set aside.

In a small mixing bowl, add the maple syrup, bourbon, soy sauce, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and garlic, mixing well to combine.

Pour the marinade over the salmon, cover, and refrigerate for 1 hour.

When ready to cook, remove the salmon fillets (reserving the marinade) and place in the basket of an air fryer.

Set the fryer to 'air fry' and cook the fillets at 390 degrees for 8 – 10 minutes, or until cooked through.

While the salmon cooks, pour the reserved marinade into a shallow saucepan and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until reduced by half and glaze is thick and syrupy.

Serve salmon over rice with your favorite roasted vegetable and drizzle with maple bourbon glaze.
