Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the salmon
  • 4 pieces salmon fillets (approximately 6 oz each) Make sure they are Halal-compliant.
For the honey mustard glaze
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons mustard (Dijon or yellow)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a bowl, whisk together honey, mustard, olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until smooth.
  3. Place the salmon fillets on a plate and generously brush or drizzle the honey mustard glaze over each piece.
  4. Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray and arrange the salmon fillets skin-side down in the basket.
Cooking
  1. Air fry the salmon at 400°F (200°C) for about 10-12 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
  2. For an added touch of crispiness, broil for an additional 2 minutes.
Serving
  1. Remove the salmon from the air fryer, plate it up, and drizzle any remaining glaze over the top.
  2. Garnish with fresh herbs or a squeeze of lemon if desired.

Notes

For a less sweet version, reduce honey; for more tangy flavors, use spicy mustard. Check the salmon closely during the last few minutes of cooking to avoid overcooking.
