Ingredients
- 4 pieces Salmon fillets
- 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh dill, finely chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 cup Whole wheat breadcrumbs
- 0 Non-stick cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Begin by rinsing the salmon fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine the lemon zest, lemon juice, chopped parsley, chopped dill, minced garlic, and freshly ground black pepper. Mix well.
Step 3
Brush each salmon fillet with olive oil, then evenly spread the lemon herb mixture on top of each fillet.
Step 4
In another bowl, combine whole wheat breadcrumbs with any residual lemon herb mixture to create a crust topping.
Step 5
Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the top of the salmon fillets, pressing lightly to ensure it adheres.
Step 6
Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (193°C) for about 3 minutes.
Step 7
Lightly coat the air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray.
Step 8
Place the salmon fillets in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not touching to allow even cooking.
Step 9
Air fry the salmon at 380°F (193°C) for 10-12 minutes or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the crust is golden brown.
Step 10
Carefully remove the salmon from the air fryer and serve immediately with your choice of sides, such as steamed vegetables or a fresh salad.
