Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 12 oz g salmon fillets
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce low sodium
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 small cube fresh ginger
Garnish
  • sesame seeds
  • green onions
  • spicy mayo or sriracha aioli

Equipment

  • 1 Air Fryer

Method
 

  1. Remove the skin and any bones from the salmon. Slice salmon into large cubes (~ 1 inch / 2.5 cms in size).
  2. Add marinade ingredients in a container - soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and grate in the garlic and ginger. Mix to combine.
  3. Place salmon in the marinade and stir to coat all pieces. Leave to marinate for 10 minutes or if you have the time for a few hours in the fridge.
  4. Preheat air fryer to 390℉ / 200℃. Spray the air fryer basket with olive oil and place salmon in a single layer, so they're not touching.
  5. Air fry for 5-8 minutes, depending on how you like it cooked. Flip halfway and brush over the leftover marinade.
  6. Serve with a garnish of sesame seeds, a drizzle of sriracha aioli with a side of rice and veggies or make a salmon bowl. Enjoy!
