Tips:

  • Make sure your air fryer is preheated: This will help the salmon cook evenly and prevent it from sticking to the basket.
  • Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket: Leave some space between the salmon pieces so that they can cook evenly.
  • Cook the salmon until it is cooked through: The internal temperature of the salmon should reach 145°F (63°C).
  • Serve the salmon immediately: Salmon is best when served hot. You can garnish it with fresh herbs, lemon wedges, or a drizzle of olive oil.
