Equipment
Ingredients
- 16 ounces wild caught salmon filets cut into 4 4 ounce portions
- avocado oil spray
Blackened Seasoning Mix
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1/2 tablespoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon thyme
Instructions
- Make the Blackened Seasoning (this is 1/2 of my original recipe)
- Pat salmon filets dry with paper towel and liberally rub seasoning on the flesh and sides of each filet (use just enough to coat the salmon - you'll likely have extra, save it for future recipes)
- Prepare Air Fryer basket by spraying with avocado oil or lining with parchment liners. Arrange filets in the basket so they are not touching. Spritz lightly with avocado oil spray.
- Cook at 400 degrees for 8-10 minutes. Check for doneness (145 internal temp and should flake easily.)
