True seafood fans will love this Old Bay salmon air fryer recipe! It's easy to prep with a handful of simple ingredients, like Old Bay seasoning and fresh lemon. The seasoned skin-on salmon fillets cook to moist, fork-flakey perfection in less than 10 minutes for a delicious dinner in a snap!
Start by patting the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper to taste. Then, rub each fillet with olive oil.
Sprinkle the Old Bay Seasoning evenly over the salmon fillets. For an added burst of flavor, squeeze lemon juice over the seasoned fillets.
Place the seasoned salmon fillets in the air fryer basket, skin-side down. Cook for 7-8 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. There's no need to flip the fillets midway through cooking.
Notes
Store leftovers in the air tight container for up to 3-4 days. Reheat in the microwave or air fryer at 350 degrees for 3 minutes (preferred method)
