Ingredients:

  • 2 (6-ounce/170g) salmon fillets
  • 1 tablespoon/15ml olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon/2.5ml garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon/1.25ml paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon/1.25ml dried thyme
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 lemon, cut into wedges, for serving

Instructions:

  1. Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper.
  3. Brush the salmon fillets with the seasoning mixture, ensuring an even coating.
  4. Place the salmon fillets in the air fryer basket, leaving space between them.
  5. Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 8-12 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets and your desired level of doneness. Check for doneness: The salmon should be opaque and flake easily with a fork. This answers how long to cook salmon in the air fryer.
  6. Serve immediately with lemon wedges and your favourite sides.
