Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound salmon fillets, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • as needed lemon wedges (for serving)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by cutting your salmon fillets into bite-sized pieces. Aim for uniform pieces to ensure even cooking.
  2. In a mixing bowl, toss the salmon bites with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Ensure every piece is well-coated for maximum flavor.
  3. Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and allow it to preheat for about 5 minutes.
Cooking
  1. Once preheated, spread the salmon pieces in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
  2. Cook for 8-10 minutes, gently shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking. Keep an eye on them; you want them golden brown and just cooked through!
Serving
  1. Once done, remove the salmon bites from the air fryer and serve them immediately with lemon wedges on the side.

Notes

For alternatives, consider using chicken or tofu. Make sure to avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket for optimal cooking.
