These seasoned air fryer salmon bites cook quickly and work well in bowls, wraps, or alongside vegetables. A little lemon and spicy mayo finish them off.
A QUICK NOTE
Cut the salmon into evenly sized pieces so everything finishes at the same time. Leave space between the bites and cook in batches rather than crowding the basket.
INGREDIENTS
2 pounds skinless salmon fillets, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
Lemon wedges, for serving
Spicy mayo, for serving
DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F.
2. Add the salmon, olive oil, paprika, cumin, garlic powder, thyme, salt, and black pepper to a large bowl. Toss gently until evenly coated.
3. Arrange the salmon in the air fryer basket in a single layer, leaving space between the pieces. Cook in batches as needed.
4. Air fry for 7–8 minutes, or until lightly browned and cooked through. Shake the basket halfway through for more even browning, if desired.
5. Serve with a squeeze of lemon and spicy mayo.
