Super easy and quick, my favorite kind of recipe. I made as directed, with the exception of the green onion (I just didn’t have any). Next time, I will season the salmon with salt and pepper, before adding the sauce, and more liberally spray my air fryer (since the skins stuck to my grill basket).
Very easy to make juicy, you’ll love it!!
Perfectly cooked and delicious every time! Definitely my favorite salmon recipe!
Delicious quick and easy, loved it.
Easy and delicious. Used frozen salmon added 5 min to cook time.
I made it for myself and I t was good !
2.9.22 Just got a new stove which has an air fryer feature, and this recipe was its trial run. I need to learn how this oven air fryer cooks in comparison to my counter-top air fryer because it’s not unusual for different brands and sizes to vary. This took 14 minutes, so it looks like I may have to add some time to my recipes, but we’ll see. It was certainly super easy to make, the sauce is delicious, and was a hit at the dinner table last night.
Loved this rendition of a favorite restaurant chain’s using shrimp. Served it for lunch over thinly sliced romaine to catch the yummy sauce! Absolutely delicious and easy. A keeper.
