Salmon is one of the healthiest and most delicious types of fish. When cooked in an air fryer, it becomes a quick and flavorful meal with minimal effort. This air fryer salmon recipe combines fast cooking with a rich balance of sweet, savory and tangy flavors.

The salmon is first marinated in a simple mixture of sweet chili sauce, soy sauce and lemon juice. Just 15 to 30 minutes of marinating is enough for the flavors to infuse the fish.

The air fryer then cooks the salmon quickly and evenly without the need for additional oil. Halfway through cooking, the salmon is brushed with the remaining marinade, creating an extra layer of flavor and a beautiful glossy finish.

This air fryer salmon is perfect for a quick weeknight dinner and is a great choice when you want something healthy without sacrificing flavor. After just 8 minutes of cooking, the salmon stays juicy inside while developing a delicious glaze on the outside. Serve it with a fresh salad for a simple and satisfying meal.
