Air Fryer Honey Garlic Salmon

Ingredients

• 4 salmon filets (5 oz each)
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 4 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons minced garlic
• ½ teaspoon paprika
• ½ teaspoon dried parsley
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon ground pepper
• Lemon slices (to serve)
• Chopped fresh parsley (to garnish)

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat the Air Fryer to 390 degrees F. Line the air fryer basket with parchment paper or a silicone mat and set aside.

2. 2

   Pat dry the salmon fillets with a kitchen towel and set aside.

3. 3

   In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. Once melted, add honey, lemon juice, garlic, paprika, dried parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.

4. 4

   Pour half of the prepared marinade over the salmon fillets, coating them evenly. Allow the salmon to marinate for at least 30 minutes.

5. 5

   While the salmon is marinating, transfer the remaining honey mixture to a saucepan. Heat it over medium heat, bringing it to a boil for a minute, then set it aside for later use.

6. 6

   Grease the air fryer basket and place the marinated salmon fillets in it. Air fry the salmon for 6-8 minutes. Then, generously brush the salmon with the prepared honey butter sauce and continue cooking for an additional 5-6 minutes.

7. 7

   Once the salmon is cooked, transfer it to a serving platter and drizzle with an additional layer of honey butter sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley.

8. 8

   Serve the honey garlic salmon alongside vegetables and lemon wedges.
