ASIAN AIR FRYER SALMON
/
Asian Air Fryer Salmon served with a salad of mixed greens, diced pepper, celery & cucumber, roasted turnip, onions & mushrooms, and Eaton Hemp toasted hemp seeds.
Air frying is by far my favourite way to prepare salmon. Honestly, I'd buy my air fryer all over again JUST for this.
It’s quick and easy, the clean up is minimal, and the salmon is PERFECT every time. We’re talking nice and crispy outside, and wonderfully tender, juicy, and buttery inside. I swear I could eat this every single week.
This recipe has a wonderful slightly sweet umami flavour thanks to the maple and coconut aminos (or soy sauce), along with a fresh little hit of ginger. To be honest, I often double the garlic and ginger, but you do what works for you! It’s also suitable for gluten-free, paleo, and keto diets.

1 tsp minced garlic, or more to taste
2 tsp grated ginger, or more to taste

In a shallow dish, combine coconut aminos, sesame oil, sweetener, garlic, and ginger.
Place salmon in marinade skin side up and cover. Marinate in the fridge for 30 to 60 minutes.
Pre-heat air fryer to 400ºF and lightly grease with avocado oil.
Place salmon in the air fryer (leaving room between each one for air to flow) and cook for 7 to 11 minutes, depending on the thickness of the salmon.
