Main Ingredients

  • 4 salmon fillets about 6 oz each, skin-on or off
  • 2 tbsp olive oil extra virgin
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 lemon juiced and zested
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped, for garnish

Instructions
 

  • In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, dried oregano, garlic powder, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, and pepper to create a Mediterranean marinade.
  • Pat the salmon fillets dry and brush the marinade evenly over each piece, letting it sit for 5 minutes while the air fryer preheats to 400°F.
  • Place the salmon fillets in the air fryer basket in a single layer, skin-side down if applicable, and cook for 10-12 minutes until the fish flakes easily.
  • Remove the salmon from the air fryer, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve immediately with your favorite sides for a complete Air Fryer Dinners meal.
