Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Salmon fillets
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh dill, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 pieces 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 shallow bowl, mix together the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, chopped dill, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and lemon zest.
Brush each salmon fillet lightly with olive oil on both sides.
Press each fillet into the herb mixture, coating both sides evenly. Press firmly to ensure the crust adheres to the fish.
Place the crusted salmon fillets in a single layer in the air fryer basket. If necessary, cook them in batches to avoid overcrowding.
Air fry the salmon for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the fish flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary due to the thickness of the fillets.
Serve the salmon hot with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the top just before eating.
