AIR FRYER SALMON WITH SPICY PEACH GLAZE
A quick and tasty dinner for two can be ready in minutes! Fresh or thawed frozen salmon filets are air-fried, then coated with a sweet-spicy glaze. Add some sesame seeds, sliced scallions, and a light squeeze of lemon juice for extra flavor, if you like. We like these with a steamed green vegetable and rice, or roasted potatoes and a salad. With either menu, it's great for a quick and elegant meal on a weeknight, or for an easy start to the weekend. Want to serve four people? Simply double the recipe, and adjust the cook time by a couple of minutes.

Steps:
- Stir peach preserves, minced garlic, powdered ginger, chili garlic sauce, and lemon juice together in a microwave-safe bowl until blended. Microwave on high for 30 to 35 seconds, or until boiling. Carefully remove from the microwave and stir again; set aside.
- Create a foil sling for the air fryer by cutting a piece of foil wide enough to cover the bottom of the air fryer basket and go up two sides about 2" inches. Spray the foil with cooking spray and place in the basket. Poke a few holes in the foil to align with the holes in the basket to allow airflow.
- Season both sides of the salmon fillets with salt and pepper and place on the foil sling. Lightly spray with cooking spray.
- Air fry at 390 degrees F (198 degrees C) for 8 minutes. Test for doneness with an instant read thermometer. Farmed salmon is "medium" at 125 degrees F (51 degrees C), and wild salmon is "medium" at 120 degrees F (48 degrees C). If needed, add air frying time in 3-minute increments, until salmon reaches preferred doneness.
- Lift the salmon filets from the air fryer using the sides of the foil sling.
- To serve, pour prepared glaze over fillets and use the remainder of the glaze as a sauce. Sprinkle fillets with sesame seeds and green onions and drizzle with lemon juice.

Steps:
- Place honey in a microwave safe dish and heat for 10 seconds until slightly warm.
- Add in the turmeric, coriander, chili powder, salt, pepper, and chili flakes into the warmed honey and mix very well until all are incorporated.
- Wash and pat dry the salmon fillets. When salmon fillets are dry, spoon on the honey-chili mixture onto each, making sure to coat the sides as well (this is messy and you will have to wash your air-fryer pan).
- Then, place the salmon fillets in an air fryer, set temperature to 400°F and set time to 12 minutes. When time is up, remove salmon fillets and enjoy with your favorite sides.

SPICY AIR FRYER SALMON
This air-fried salmon invokes a spicy yet sweet seasoning. The more seasoning you add to the salmon the spicier it will be, so I recommend starting with 2 teaspoons of seasoning per salmon fillet. You may use less salmon if desired. If you use the full amount you will need to cook in batches. You may have extra seasoning leftover, which can be stored in a jar and kept in a cool, dark place.

Steps:
- Preheat the air fryer to the fish setting of 330 degrees F (165 degrees C) for 2 minutes.
- Combine steak seasoning, brown sugar, cumin, coriander, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle about 2 teaspoons of the seasoning mix (or more, if desired) on each salmon fillet. Place salmon in the air fryer basket in one layer.
- Working in batches if necessary, cook salmon in the air fryer until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 18 minutes. Transfer the cooked salmon onto a plate and keep warm in the oven preheated to the lowest setting. Repeat with remaining salmon fillets. Serve immediately.

AIR-FRYER SALMON WITH MAPLE-DIJON GLAZE
Being landlocked in the Midwest, my kids always thought they disliked fish. This air-fryer salmon dish definitely changed their minds! I cook it on the grill a lot in the summer months, but found that it is just as tasty and more convenient in the air fryer, especially on those busy days! -Jill Fisher, Portland, Indiana

Place fish in a single layer in air fryer basket. Cook until fish is lightly browned and just beginning to flake easily with a fork, 5-7 minutes. Drizzle with sauce right before serving.

Tips:
- Choose the right salmon fillet: Look for a fillet that is about 1 inch thick and has a nice, even shape. Avoid fillets that are too thin or have a lot of bones.
- Pat the salmon dry before cooking: This will help the skin crisp up and prevent the salmon from steaming.
- Season the salmon liberally: Use a combination of salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. You can also add a drizzle of olive oil or melted butter.
- Preheat your air fryer: This will help the salmon cook evenly.
- Cook the salmon for the recommended time: Overcooking will dry out the salmon, so be careful not to cook it for too long.
- Make the spicy peach glaze while the salmon is cooking: This will give the glaze time to thicken and develop its flavors.
- Brush the salmon with the glaze in the last few minutes of cooking: This will help the glaze caramelize and give the salmon a delicious, sticky coating.
Conclusion:
Air fryer salmon with spicy peach glaze is a quick, easy, and delicious meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The salmon is cooked to perfection in the air fryer, and the spicy peach glaze adds a sweet and tangy flavor that is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve the salmon with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, rice, or quinoa.
