Hey guys, I know I'm late to the game with owning an air fryer. When my daughter asked for an air fryer we saw one on sale at Costco. We have a friend who moved and asked us if we would like hers and we jumped at the chance and said yes.
I like this air fryer and it cooked the salmon within minutes. I searched Pinterest for an easy recipe and you'll see below the details on how to make it.
Air Fryer - Gormia - Model #GAF575
I defrosted 2 salmon filets for the recipe.
I made a marinade for the salmon and smoothed it on top of the salmon.
The air fryer salmon was cooked within minutes.
The salmon all cooked and plated. I like using the air fryer and the marinade made the salmon delicious tasting.
WHAT YOU NEED:
AIR FRYER SALMON
The Recipe and Details can be found at Well Plated
PREP: 10 minutes
COOK: 8 minutes
TOTAL: 18 minutes
SERVINGS: 2 servings
INGREDIENTS:
- 2 salmon fillets
- pinch kosher salt
- pinch black pepper
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar or honey
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- pinch ground ginger
DIRECTIONS:
- With paper towels, pat the salmon dry. Sprinkle lightly on both sides with salt and pepper.
- For easy cleanup, line the air fryer basket with aluminum foil. Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F according to the manufacturer's instructions (for my air fryer, that is 3 minutes)
- In a small bowl or larger liquid measuring cup, mix together the brown sugar, Dijon, oil, soy sauce, garlic powder, and ginger (if using). Spoon all over the top of the salmon.
- Slide-out the air fryer basket and set it on a heatproof surface. Place the fillets in the basket so that they are not touching.
- Cook the salmon in the air fryer for 6 to 11 minutes, depending upon their thickness and your model (fillets around 1 inch will need 8 to 9 minutes). Do not overcook or the salmon will be dry. Salmon is done when it registers 145 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer (I remove mine a few degrees early, let it rest, then the carryover cooking finishes the job). Check it a few times towards the end to make sure it doesn't overcook.
- Transfer to a serving plate. Enjoy hot, with a sprinkle of additional salt and pepper if desired.
NOTE: I left the out the ground ginger because I didn't have any on hand.

That looks delicious Julie! We use the air fryer setting on our toaster oven for a lot of things. I love it!! That's so nice you got one from your friend too!
ReplyDeleteWe love cooking salmon in our air fryer! I have a different type of air fryer as the "bucket" didn't really work for our large family so we tried out one with trays and between the 3 trays I can now cook enough for all of us. I can't wait to try out this recipe!
ReplyDeleteJoanne, I hope you enjoy this air fryer salmon recipe as it tastes delicious!
DeleteI have a small air fryer, but I’m sure I could fit 1-2 salmon filets in it. Thanks for the delicious recipe, Julie. Hope you have a great week!
