Description

Delightful crispy salmon bites made in the air fryer, perfect for cozy gatherings this fall.


Ingredients

  • 1 pound fresh salmon fillet, skin removed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (or a halal cooking oil of choice)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs (panko or gluten-free options)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
  • Lemon wedges (for serving)


Instructions

  1. Prepare the salmon: Rinse the salmon fillet under cold water and pat dry. Cut into 1-inch cubes.
  2. Marinate the fish: Combine olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Toss salmon bites until well-coated.
  3. Coat with breadcrumbs: Roll each marinated piece in breadcrumbs, then place on a plate or baking sheet.
  4. Preheat the air fryer: Set to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
  5. Air fry the bites: Cook the salmon bites in a single layer for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and crispy.
  6. Serve: Remove the bites and garnish with parsley and lemon wedges. Enjoy!

Notes

Use fresh salmon for the best flavor and avoid overcrowding the air fryer for even cooking.
