Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Lemon wedges for serving
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

  2. In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  3. Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and place them in a bowl or on a plate.
  4. Brush the olive oil mixture over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are well-coated.
  5. Place the salmon fillets in the air fryer basket, skin-side down, making sure they are not overlapping.
