Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon brown sugar

• 2 pounds salmon fillets, skin on
• 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon ground coriander
• 0.75 teaspoon ground cumin

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the air fryer to the fish setting of 330 degrees F (165 degrees C) for 2 minutes.

Step 2

Combine steak seasoning, brown sugar, cumin, coriander, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle about 2 teaspoons of the seasoning mix (or more, if desired) on each salmon fillet. Place salmon in the air fryer basket in one layer.

Step 3

Working in batches if necessary, cook salmon in the air fryer until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 18 minutes. Transfer the cooked salmon onto a plate and keep warm in the oven preheated to the lowest setting. Repeat with remaining salmon fillets. Serve immediately.
