In recent years, air frying has surged in popularity, transforming the way we approach meal preparation. This innovative cooking method offers a healthier alternative to traditional frying by using significantly less oil while still delivering that irresistible crispy texture we all crave. The air fryer circulates hot air around foods, resulting in quick, even cooking that locks in moisture and flavor. As a result, air-fried dishes not only maintain their nutritional integrity but also provide a satisfyingly delicious experience.

Ingredients
  

2 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)

1 cup cooked jasmine rice

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

1 small cucumber, sliced

1 cup baby spinach

2 radishes, thinly sliced

1 green onion, chopped

Sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions
 

Marinate the Salmon: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, honey (or maple syrup), garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Let it sit for about 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.

    Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.

      Air Fry the Salmon: Place the marinated salmon fillets in the air fryer basket, skin-side down. Cook for 8-10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

        Prepare the Rice Bowl: While the salmon is cooking, assemble your rice bowl. Divide the cooked jasmine rice between two bowls.

          Add Vegetables: Top the rice with fresh baby spinach, sliced cucumber, and radishes.

            Add the Cooked Salmon: Once the salmon is done, carefully remove it from the air fryer and place it over the rice and veggies in each bowl.

              Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle chopped green onion and sesame seeds on top. Drizzle any leftover marinade over the bowls for extra flavor.

                Enjoy: Serve immediately and enjoy your nutritious, Quick Air Fryer Salmon Rice Bowl!
