Once you’ve cooked salmon in the air fryer, you might never go back to sautéing or broiling. The method is incredibly quick, and the results are delectable—a slightly crisp exterior and juicy, silky interior. To ensure the spices distribute evenly, combine them in a bowl first instead of trying to sprinkle them on the fish individually.
