Ingredients
  

  • 4 fillets salmon fillets 6 ounces each, skin on or off
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice freshly squeezed
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped, for garnish

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together honey, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  2. Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Place them in a shallow dish and pour half of the honey garlic sauce over the salmon, reserving the other half. Let marinate for 5 minutes.
  3. Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 3 minutes.
  4. Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Place the marinated salmon fillets in the basket skin-side down, making sure they are not touching each other.
  5. Cook the salmon at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 8-10 minutes, depending on thickness, until the salmon reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit and flakes easily with a fork.
  6. During the last 2 minutes of cooking, brush the reserved honey garlic sauce over the salmon fillets. Continue cooking until the glaze is slightly caramelized.
  7. Remove the salmon from the air fryer and let rest for 2 minutes. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve immediately with your favorite sides.

Notes

Do not overcook the salmon or it will become dry. Check for doneness at 8 minutes for thinner fillets. The honey garlic sauce can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For extra caramelization, brush additional sauce on the salmon halfway through cooking. Serve with steamed vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
