Ingredients
Scale
Salmon Bites
- 1 pound salmon, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
Glaze
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon water
Instructions
- Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 190°C (380°F) and allow it to preheat while you prepare the salmon mixture.
- Prepare the Sauce and Coat Salmon: In a mixing bowl, whisk together salt, garlic powder, pepper, soy sauce, minced garlic, honey, and minced ginger. Add the salmon pieces and toss well to fully coat them in the marinade.
- Air Fry the Salmon Bites: Remove salmon from the marinade, reserving the leftover sauce. Place the salmon bites in a single layer inside the air fryer basket. Air fry for 6 minutes, flipping the pieces halfway through to ensure even cooking.
- Make the Glaze: While the salmon cooks, combine cornstarch and water in a small bowl to create a slurry. Whisk this slurry into the reserved sauce. Pour the mixture into a small saucepan and simmer over medium heat until the sauce thickens slightly, forming a glaze.
- Glaze and Serve: Once the salmon bites are cooked, brush them with the thickened glaze. Serve immediately while hot for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- These quick and easy air fryer salmon bites are perfect for a nutritious snack or appetizer.
