Perfect Air Fryer Salmon Recipe | Maple Dijon Salmon

maple syrup

🥗Healthier: agave syrup

💰Cheaper: brown sugar

Agave syrup provides a lower glycemic index, while brown sugar is more economical.

Dijon mustard

🥗Healthier: whole grain mustard

💰Cheaper: yellow mustard

Whole grain mustard offers a similar flavor with more texture, while yellow mustard is less expensive.

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a small bowl, whisk together maple syrup, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, minced garlic, olive oil, black pepper, and salt.

Place salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down.

Brush the maple Dijon mixture generously over the salmon fillets.

Sprinkle lemon juice over the top of the fillets.

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.

Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes.

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
