Salmon is a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) and potassium. The omega-3 and -6 fatty acids combined with potassium greatly contribute to heart health, as they reduce artery inflammation, lower cholesterol levels, and maintain blood pressure levels.

Why is salmon so healthy?

One study found that baked salmon retained all its vitamin D, whereas fried salmon in oil lost around 50% of this important vitamin. For these reasons, oven-baking or air frying are considered healthy ways to cook fish.

INGREDIENTS

1 1/4 lb boneless salmon fillets cut into 4 filets (5 oz each about 1″ thick)

2 Tbs melted butter

2 Tbs olive oil

2 Tbs regular soy sauce

2 Tbs honey

4 cloves garlic, minced

2 Tbs brown sugar

2 Tbs dijon mustard

1/4 tsp black pepper or to taste

1/8 tsp kosher salt

4 slices of lemon

Fresh Dill to garnish

Instructions:

In a large mixing bowl add melted butter, olive oil, soy sauce, garlic, honey, brown sugar, dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. Mix and combine.

Add the salmon fillets to the bowl and ensure that the salmon is covered in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the salmon to soak in all the flavors.

Place a couple of pieces of aluminum foil into your air fryer basket to trap the juices. Place slices of lemon on top of the aluminum foil, then place the salmon on top.

Air Fry at 390° for 12 minutes or until the internal temperature has reached 145° F.

Once cooked, spoon the remaining sauce over the salmon and garnish with fresh dill.
