Air fryer salmon is one of the easiest and quickest ways to prepare salmon. It turns out juicy, flaky, and tender on the inside with a perfectly crispy exterior. Paired with a simple garlic lemon butter sauce, it’s a foolproof weeknight dinner.
Ingredients
Instructions
Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Place them in the air fryer basket and season with salt and ground black pepper.
Cook at 400°F (200°C) for 8-10 minutes, or until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. For thicker fillets, add 2-3 minutes if needed.
Remove the salmon from the basket and set aside.
To make the sauce, melt the butter in a small saucepan. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in the lemon juice and remove from heat.
Pour the sauce over the salmon before serving.
