About the Recipe
Air fryer salmon with big flavor — clean ingredients, fast prep, and a touch of divine deliciousness.
Ingredients
6 (4 oz) salmon fillets (skin removed)
2 tbsp avocado oil (or extra-virgin olive oil)
1 lemon, zested + juiced
1–2 tbsp Everything Bagel Seasoning (more if you love bold)
Pinch sea salt + fresh cracked pepper
Optional: fresh dill or parsley for garnish
Optional: lemon wedges for serving
Preparation
Prep the Salmon:
Pat fillets dry with a paper towel — that helps the seasoning stick and crisp the edges.
Oil + Lemon Love:
Drizzle each fillet with avocado oil, then squeeze fresh lemon juice all over. Add lemon zest for an extra citrus boost.
Season Generously:
Sprinkle Everything Bagel Seasoning evenly on top (and a pinch of sea salt + pepper). Don’t be shy — you want flavor in every bite.
Air Fry Magic:
Place fillets in a single layer in your air fryer basket (don’t overcrowd).
Air Fry at 400°F (200°C) for ~10–12 minutes — until salmon flakes easily and is cooked through.
Serve and Celebrate:
Plate warm, garnish with fresh herbs, and serve with lemon wedges. Perfect over quinoa, greens, or wild rice.
