Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, drizzle lemon juice and olive oil over salmon and rub to make sure the salmon filets are evenly coated.
  • Season generously with salt, pepper, and Italian herbs.
  • Arrange salmon filets in air fryer basket, making sure they dont touch too much (don"t over crowd the basket, so air can move around salmon easily).
  • Arrange lemon slices on and around salmon in air fryer basket.
  • Set air fryer to 400 degrees and cook for 10 minutes for salmon with a little bit of red in the middle.
  • Cook for 12 minutes for salmon with no red in the middle, 14 for well done salmon or thicker salmon filets.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

*I put a flexible cutting board down when slicing my lemon, as I'll usually just use the juice that comes from cutting it.
