Parmesan-Basil Air Fryer Salmon

Air fryer salmon is my favorite thing to make! So simple combining a little mayonnaise, basil and Parmesan which creates a delicious crust even the kids can’t resist! Of course, if you don’t have an Air fryer you can also make this in the oven or make this Parmesan-Herb Baked Salmon recipe. If you love this salmon recipe you might like this Air Fryer Salmon with Maple Soy Glaze or this Sweet and Spicy Glazed Salmon in the air fryer.

Is Salmon Good In The Air Fryer?

Salmon is one of my favorite things to make in the air fryer, it comes out so juicy and cooks so quick!  Although you may have to cook this in batches depending on the size of your air fryer, in the time it takes to pre-heat a regular oven, both batches will be done. I make this at least once a week and switch it up with different herbs, but what makes this fish extra special is the Parmesan crust, I promise you will love it!

How Long Do I Cook Salmon In The Air Fryer?

How long to cook salmon in the air fryer will depend on the thickness of the fish. I like to cook salmon at 400F and cook it anywhere from 6 minutes to 10 minutes.

Air Fryer Tip:

Spraying the food rather than the basket is usually advised, but for some foods that may stick, spraying the basket is fine. Avoid cooking sprays, instead you can purchase an oil mister and use your favorite oil, or buy a propellant-free olive oil spray with no additives, such as Bertolli 100% Extra Virgin Olive Oil Spray.
