Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 salmon fillets skin on or off
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 tsp ginger grated
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds for garnish
  • 1 tbsp chopped green onions for garnish

Method
 

  1. In a bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, olive oil, garlic, ginger, black pepper, and salt.
  2. Coat the salmon fillets with the marinade and let them sit for 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  3. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Place the salmon in the air fryer basket and cook for 8-10 minutes until caramelized and flaky.
  4. Sprinkle sesame seeds and green onions over the salmon. Serve immediately with steamed rice or roasted vegetables.

Notes

  • Spicy Kick: Add 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes for heat.
  • Lemon Twist: Squeeze fresh lemon juice for extra brightness.
Maple Swap: Substitute honey with maple syrup for a deeper sweetness.
