Notes

Cooking times will vary based upon the thickness of your salmon. I used 1 ½ inch thicken salmon.
If you leave the skin on you do not need to flip the salmon. If you removed the skin, you can gently slip the salmon half way through the cooking process.
If your salmon is not done to your liking, you can add 1-2 minutes until it is done.
You can quickly over cook the salmon, so be sure to check on it every few minutes.
Pro Tip: This recipe can be made in the air fryer unit with a basket or the air fryer oven. If you are using the air fryer oven, use the middle rack and select the "Air Fry" function.
Pro Tip: Check your food as it cooks. Each air fryer runs a bit differently. Sometimes airfying is a trial and error process. Check your food as it cooks to learn your air fryer better! When cooking a new recipe or food items be sure to check your food often to help avoid over/under cooking.
