Notes
- Cooking time: The cooking time is for 5-ounce frozen salmon fillets. For thicker/larger fillets, increase the cooking time and check the doneness using a meat thermometer.
- Sauce is optional: If you don't add a sauce, don't open the air fryer at the 5-minute mark; instead, continue cooking.
- Leftovers: Store salmon in the fridge, covered, for up to 3 days.
