1 Ingredients
| Qty | Item |
|---|---|
| 4 fillets | Salmon fillets |
| 1/3 cup | Honey |
| 3 tbsp | Soy sauce |
| 1 tbsp | Lemon juice |
| 3 cloves | Garlic cloves, minced |
| 1/2 tsp | Fresh ginger, grated |
| 1 tsp | Olive oil |
| 1/2 tsp | Black pepper |
2 Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create the glaze.
Pat the salmon fillets completely dry with paper towels. Season the flesh side with black pepper.
Lightly brush the salmon with olive oil, then generously brush the honey garlic mixture over each fillet.
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 3 minutes.
Place the salmon fillets in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they do not touch.
Air fry for 8 to 10 minutes, depending on thickness, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F and the edges are slightly charred and caramelized.
Garnish with sesame seeds or green onions if desired and serve immediately.
💡 Tips & Tricks
-
·
Patting the salmon dry is essential for getting that sticky glaze to adhere properly.
-
·
Use a parchment paper liner designed for air fryers to make cleanup of the sticky honey glaze much easier.
-
·
Check the salmon at the 8-minute mark; thinner fillets cook very quickly in the air fryer.
-
·
If you want a thicker glaze, simmer the leftover marinade in a small saucepan for 2-3 minutes until reduced before drizzling over the finished fish.
