Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 oz each) Salmon fillets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon, chopped Fresh dill
- 4 pieces for serving Lemon wedges
Instructions
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Brush the mixture evenly over the salmon fillets, ensuring each piece is well-coated.
Place the salmon fillets in the air fryer basket, skin-side down. Make sure there is space between the fillets to allow even cooking.
Air fry the salmon at 400°F for 8-10 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) and the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
Carefully remove the salmon from the air fryer. Sprinkle with fresh dill.
Serve the salmon with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
