Air Fryer Salmon Nuggets Recipes

AIR FRYER SALMON NUGGETS

Steps:

• Combine maple syrup, chipotle powder, and salt in saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to low to keep warm.
• Place croutons in the bowl of a mini food processor; pulse until crushed into fine crumbs. Transfer to a shallow bowl. Whisk egg in a separate bowl.
• Preheat the air fryer to 390 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Sprinkle salmon lightly with sea salt. Lightly dip salmon into egg mixture, letting excess drip off. Coat salmon in crouton breading and shake off extra. Set on a plate and mist lightly with cooking spray.
• Spray basket of the air fryer with cooking spray. Place salmon nuggets inside, working in batches to avoid overcrowding, if necessary.
• Cook in the preheated air fryer for 3 minutes. Gently turn salmon pieces, spray lightly with oil, and cook until salmon is cooked throughout, 3 to 4 more minutes. Place on a serving platter and drizzle with warm chipotle-maple syrup. Serve immediately.

AIR FRYER LEMON-PEPPER SALMON JERKY

Steps:

• Freeze salmon for 1 hour. In the meantime, in a large bowl, combine the soy sauce, lemon juice, sugar, peppercorns, lemon zest, liquid smoke, celery seeds, onion and garlic powders, and salt. Remove the salmon from the freezer and cut it into thin strips (about 1/2 inch), then place in the marinade. Cover and marinate for 1 to 3 hours in the fridge. Remove strips and place on a plate, patting dry with a paper towel. Set the air fryer to 180°F (or lowest available temperature), and place the salmon strips in the fryer basket in a single layer. Fry for about 3 hours, flipping over halfway through. Salmon is done when dried all the way through, but slightly chewy. Store in a cool dry place in a sealed container.
