INSTRUCTIONS :

  • Season salmon all over with salt and pepper.
  • In s small bowl, whisk together oil, mustard, maple syrup (or brown sugar), garlic and thyme. It should be a paste-like consistency.
  • Spread on top of the salmon fillet.
  • Preheat your air fryer to 425F for 5 minutes. This is an important step. You want to make sure your air fryer is hot and ready for the salmon.
  • Arrange salmon in air fryer basket or tray. Skin side down
  • Set air fryer to 400F/200C and cook for 6-8 minutes, depending on the size of the thickest piece of salmon fillet.
  • When the timer goes off, open the basket and check fillets with a fork to make sure they are done to your desired doneness.

Notes:

Tips to get success in air fryer salmon recipe

  • Fillets should be similar in width.
  • Your air fryer should be preheated, before putting the fillets into it.
  • Check its doneness.
  • If you have a smaller size air fryer, then you should not overcrowd your basket. Add fillets in separate batches.
  • Do not worry about undercooking the salmon. If your salmon is undercooked, you can always send it back to the air fryer for a minute or two.
  • Learn by trial and error. Once you achieve the perfect tenderness and doneness of your salmon in the air fryer, you will become a pro. Different Air fryer brands may cook slightly differently. The air fryer that I use for cooking my salmon is Ninja Foodi XL 6-in-1.
