One of my favorite recipes and it only takes 15 minutes to make! I absolutely love this air fryer with honey sriracha salmon. It is perfect paired with cauliflower rice or regular rice. It has an avocado pineapple salsa on top that is versatile so save that recipe to use on a bunch of other recipes this summer! You will want to make this salmon once a week. Not only is it so tasty, you don’t have to turn on your oven. I don’t know about you guys but I don’t want to turn my oven on when it’s 95 degrees outside. There’s nothing enjoyable about sweating a ton while making a meal. So keep this meal in your recipe rotation this summer for those nights when you don’t want to take a long time to make dinner or sweat up a storm.
Salmon is probably my favorite protein to make for a meal. It feels like a no fail which I never would have said back when I first started cooking. Cooking fish was so intimidating to me. Now, cooking salmon in the air fryer is my go to! It doesn’t take long and it gets sooo crispy on the outside.
What Air Fryer I Use:
I use the Ninja Air Fryer Foodie Oven. I’ve had it for years and it still works so well! I use it as a toaster, broiler, and so many other things. It’s pricey but really is great.
