Instructions

  • Preheat Your Air Fryer
    Set your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) and let it preheat for about 3 minutes. Preheating makes the salmon crispy and perfect.
  • Prepare the Marinade
    In a bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of honey, and 1 minced garlic clove. This marinade gives your salmon amazing flavor!
  • Marinate the Salmon
    Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the fillets, ensuring they are well coated. Let them soak for about 5 minutes to absorb all that deliciousness.
  • Cook the Salmon
    Carefully place the marinated salmon fillets in the air fryer basket. Cook for 8-10 minutes. The salmon should be flaky and cooked through.
  • Add the Glaze
    For extra flavor, brush the salmon with more marinade halfway through cooking. This makes the glaze even sweeter and stickier!
  • Garnish and Serve
    Once done, take the salmon out of the air fryer. Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions on top. Serve it up with your favorite sides!
