Ingredients

  • 1 lb salmon filet, skin removed and cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Pat the salmon dry and place it in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Drizzle olive oil over the salmon, then add garlic powder, paprika, salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Toss to coat evenly.
  4. Place the salmon pieces in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Do not overcrowd.
  5. Air fry for 7-8 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking.
  6. Remove the salmon bites, garnish with parsley if desired, and serve immediately.

Notes

For best results, use fresh salmon. These bites pair well with rice, salad, or a dipping sauce like garlic aioli or sriracha mayo.
