Ingredients
- Salmon fillet.
- Half a tablespoon of olive oil.
- Salt and pepper for seasoning.
- You can also use other herbs like paprika, curry, rosemary, thyme, etc.
Instructions
- Put on the Air fryer and set the temperature to 200C (400f).
- Rub a little olive oil over the salmon fillet.
- Sprinkle enough of the seasoning (including your choice) over the fillet and rub it in.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Prepare the air fryer by brushing it with a bit of oil.
- Place the salmon into the Air fryer with the skin area downwards.
- Set the Air fryer timer to eight minutes.
- At eight minutes, check the salmon to see if it is cooked. Cooked salmon should have flakes, and the size of the fillet determines how fast it cooks, not the air fryer.
- If it is cooked, set the timer to an extra two minutes so it can turn crispy.
