½teaspoonsmoked paprika

¼cupmayonnaise

½-1tablespoonsrirachaor ketchup

1teaspoonlemon juice

¼teaspoongarlic powder

Instructions

• Cut the salmon into even 1-1.5-inch cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl. Preheat the air fryer to 390 degrees F.

• Drizzle the oil and lemon juice over the salmon and sprinkle it with the seasoning. Use your hands or a wooden spoon to toss everything together, coating the bites completely.

• Place them in a single layer in the air fryer basket, air frying them for 7-10 minutes, flipping once until they’re fully cooked.

• While the fish is cooking, combine the mayo, sriracha, lemon juice, and garlic powder in a small mixing bowl and whisk until it’s fully combined.

Notes

• Mix the salmon gently after adding the spices so it doesn’t break up the fish.
• If there’s excess moisture on the salmon, pat it dry with a paper towel before adding the oil and seasonings.
• Cut the salmon into even 1-inch cubes so everything cooks at the same rate.
• Arrange the salmon bites in a single layer in the air fryer basket so they cook evenly. Cook in batches if needed.
• Flip them halfway through cooking for even browning on all sides.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• Reheat leftovers in a preheated air fryer at 390 degrees F for 3-4 minutes until they’re heated through.
