How to Make Air Fryer Crispy Parmesan Salmon Bites

  1. Wash your salmon filet, then place it on a paper towel. Dab it dry to remove any moisture.

  2. Use a sharp knife to remove the skin of the salmon. Cut the salmon piece into 1-inch cubes. Make sure the salmon is cut into equal, bite-sized pieces so it all cooks evenly.

  3. Add the salmon cubes into a bowl. Add 3 tablespoons of olive oil, the grated parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt and pepper.

  4. Toss it all together to coat the salmon.

  5. Place the seasoned salmon bites in an even, single layer in the basket of the air fryer.

  6. Air fry at 380F for about 6 minutes until golden brown and crispy.

  7. Remove from the air fryer and drizzle with your favorite dipping sauce. I like using a creamy garlic sauce with melted butter.
