Instructions

  1. 1. Preheat the air fryer to 180 °C. This takes about 3 minutes.
  2. 2. Pat the 200 g salmon fillet dry with paper towels. Never wash it, as this spreads germs.
  3. 3. Finely chop the garlic clove. This prevents it from burning at the high heat.
  4. 4. Place the salmon in a bowl. Drizzle it with 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
  5. 5. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Spread it evenly over the fish.
  6. 6. Spread the finely chopped garlic evenly over the salmon.
  7. 7. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon thyme and 1 teaspoon oregano over it. Ensure even distribution.
  8. 8. Season with a pinch of salt and a pinch of pepper. Gently rub the spices in.
  9. 9. Place the salmon flat in the air fryer basket. Make sure it doesn’t overlap.
  10. 10. Cook the salmon at 180 °C for about 8 to 10 minutes. The exact time depends on the fillet thickness.
  11. 11. Open the basket halfway through. Check if the fish is already firm.
  12. 12. Continue cooking until the salmon is golden brown at the edges and flakes easily with a fork.
  13. 13. Carefully remove the salmon from the air fryer. Let it rest in the basket for 2 minutes.
  14. 14. Place the salmon on a plate. It’s perfect when it looks juicy and flaky.
