Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 3 tbsp reduced sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sriracha hot sauce
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 4 wild salmon fillets

Equipment Needed

  • Air Fryer
  • Air Fryer Parchment

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a small mixing bowl, whisk together maple syrup, soy sauce, sriracha, and minced garlic. Transfer this mixture into a gallon-sized resealable plastic bag and add the salmon fillets.

  2. 2

    Allow the salmon to marinate for 15 to 20 minutes, occasionally turning the bag to ensure even coverage. If you’re short on time, a quick 5-minute soak will still impart flavor.

  3. 3

    Lightly coat the air fryer basket with oil spray to prevent the salmon from sticking, or alternatively, line it with air fryer parchment.

  4. 4

    Take the salmon out of the marinade, making sure to reserve the marinade, and gently pat the fillets dry with paper towels.

  5. 5

    Arrange the salmon in the air fryer in batches, cooking at 400°F for 7 to 8 minutes. Adjust the cooking time as necessary based on the thickness of the salmon.

  6. 6

    While the salmon cooks, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan and heat over medium-low heat. Allow it to simmer and reduce for 1 to 2 minutes until it thickens into a glaze, being careful not to let it dry out. Drizzle this glaze over the salmon just before serving.

  7. 7

    If you do not have an air fryer, you can prepare the salmon using a skillet instead.
