How to Prepare Air Fryer Baked Salmon
Prepare the breading by placing the breadcrumbs, teaspoon of oil, a pinch of salt, and chopped parsley in a bowl. Mix well and set aside.
Remove the skin from the salmon fillet and cut it in half to get two portions. Coat them on all sides with the breadcrumbs, pressing it in to make it stick, and add a bit on top.
Preheat the air fryer to 340°F. Place the salmon fillets directly in the basket, without parchment paper, and cook for 6 minutes. Raise the temperature to 375°F and continue cooking for another 2 minutes.
Serve the fillets hot, accompanied by a salad or the side dish of your choice.
