- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
Cooking
- Arrange the salmon pieces in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
- Cook the salmon bites for about 8-10 minutes, checking for doneness halfway through.
- Once cooked, remove the salmon bites from the air fryer and let them rest for a minute.
Serving
- Serve hot, optionally with a squeeze of fresh lemon and a sprinkle of extra herbs.
Notes
For a spicier version, add a dash of cayenne pepper or your favorite hot seasoning. Ensure your salmon is fresh for best flavor. These bites pair wonderfully with a yogurt dip or a fresh green salad.
