Ingredients
2 salmon fillets, skin-on, about 6 ounces each
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lemon, zested and juiced
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dried dill
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Lemon wedges, for serving
Instructions
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic powder, dried dill, salt, and black pepper.
Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels.
Brush the lemon and herb mixture evenly over both sides of the salmon fillets.
Place the salmon fillets skin-side down in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not touching.
Cook the salmon in the air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Carefully remove the salmon from the air fryer and transfer to serving plates.
Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
