Ingredients
- 4 pieces Salmon fillets
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh dill, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 pieces Lemon wedges
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Step 3
In a shallow bowl, mix together the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, chopped dill, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and lemon zest.
Step 4
Brush each salmon fillet lightly with olive oil on both sides.
Step 5
Press each fillet into the herb mixture, coating both sides evenly. Press firmly to ensure the crust adheres to the fish.
Step 6
Place the crusted salmon fillets in a single layer in the air fryer basket. If necessary, cook them in batches to avoid overcrowding.
Step 7
Air fry the salmon for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the fish flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary due to the thickness of the fillets.
Step 8
Serve the salmon hot with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the top just before eating.
