Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound Salmon skinless and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 Tablespoon Oil such as avocado oil; see our guide to Cooking Oils
  • 1 Tablespoon Chili seasoning
  • Chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Toss 1 pound Salmon pieces with 1 Tablespoon Oil and 1 Tablespoon Chili seasoning to coat well.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 400℉.
  • Place the salmon pieces in the preheated air fryer basket. Air fry the salmon until just cooked through, 5-6 minutes. At 5 minutes check the salmon’s internal temperature with an instant read thermometer inserted into the thickest part. It should be between 130-140℉. If not up to temperature, air fry another 30 seconds to a minute and check the temperature again.
  • Allow salmon bites to rest for 5 minutes before serving. When salmon is ready, garnish with Chopped fresh parsley if desired, and serve.

Notes

  • It's important not to overcook salmon, as it can become dry and lose its flavor and tenderness, so be sure to check the internal temperature with a thermometer.
  • If you're using frozen salmon, make sure to thaw it first by leaving it in the refrigerator overnight or by thawing it in a cold water bath, changing out the water every 30 minutes.
  • Cook time may vary depending on your specific air fryer model. As always, use the cook time and temperature as a guide until you are more comfortable with your specific brand of air fryer.
  • Time and temperature is based on a preheated air fryer. If cooking in multiple batches, be sure to check on the remaining batches early, as they may cook more quickly.
