Instructions

In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, honey, onion powder, garlic powder, and sesame seeds until well combined.

Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish. Pour the sauce over the fillets, making sure they’re coated well. Let them marinate skin-side up for 5–10 minutes.

Meanwhile, preheat your air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes. This ensures a nice even cook from the start.

Spray the air fryer basket lightly with olive oil spray to prevent sticking. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down into the basket.

Pour any remaining sauce over the top of the fillets, letting it run down the sides so they are beautifully glazed.

Air fry at 400°F for 7 minutes. The glaze will caramelize slightly, and the salmon will be tender and juicy inside.

Remove carefully and let the salmon rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to settle.
