AIR FRYER SALMON | my favorite 15-minute dinner recipe!

salmon fillets

🥗Healthier: trout fillets

💰Cheaper: canned salmon

Trout is a lean fish with similar flavor; canned salmon is budget-friendly.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Avocado oil has a higher smoke point; canola oil is often less expensive.

Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).

Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels.

Drizzle olive oil over the salmon and rub it in.

Sprinkle garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper evenly on both sides.

Place lemon slices on top of the salmon fillets.

Arrange the salmon fillets in the air fryer basket in a single layer.

Cook for 8-10 minutes, depending on thickness, until salmon is flaky.

Check for doneness with a fork; it should easily flake apart.

Remove the salmon from the air fryer and let it rest for a couple of minutes.

Serve with additional lemon wedges if desired.
