Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb salmon cubed
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ –¾ tsp salt
  • 1 –2 tsp honey or maple syrup
  • Juice of ½ lemon

Method
 

  1. Cut salmon into 1-inch cubes and pat dry.
  2. Mix all marinade ingredients in a bowl.
  3. Toss salmon cubes in the marinade; let sit for 10 minutes.
  4. Preheat air fryer to 390°F.
  5. Add salmon bites in a single layer.
  6. Air fry 7–9 minutes, shaking halfway.
  7. Serve with rice bowls, tacos, or salad.

Notes

  • Don’t skip smoked paprika—regular paprika is too mild.
  • Shake the basket halfway for even browning.
  • Use parchment liners to keep your air fryer clean.
  • Frozen salmon works—just thaw first.
