# Ingredients:
→ Salmon Bites
01 -
1 ½ cups panko breadcrumbs
02 -
1 teaspoon paprika
03 -
1 teaspoon garlic powder
04 -
1 teaspoon onion powder
05 -
½ teaspoon salt
06 -
½ teaspoon pepper
07 -
24 oz salmon filets, cut into 1-inch pieces
→ Creamy Garlic Dill Sauce
08 -
½ cup mayonnaise
09 -
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
10 -
2 tablespoons lemon juice
11 -
2 tablespoons milk
12 -
1 tablespoon minced fresh dill
13 -
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F.
02 -
In a shallow bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
03 -
Coat each piece of salmon in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing the crumbs onto the fish to help them stick.
04 -
Spray the air fryer basket with oil or non-stick cooking spray. Place the salmon bites in a single layer, making sure they are not touching. You may need to cook these in 2-3 batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
05 -
For extra crispy results, lightly mist the salmon with oil before cooking. Air fry the salmon for 4 minutes, then flip them over and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes, until they are cooked through and the breadcrumbs are crispy and golden brown.
06 -
While the salmon bites are cooking, make the sauce by whisking all of the sauce ingredients together in a small bowl.
07 -
Serve the salmon with the sauce and lemon wedges on the side, if desired.
# Notes:
01 -
Store cooled leftover salmon bites in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
02 -
Reheat leftovers in the air fryer at 350°F for 2 to 3 minutes to retain their crispiness.
