Ingredients
1 pound salmon
1/3 cup bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon honey
Directions
Step 1: Prepare the salmon
Remove the skin from your salmon. If this is an unfamiliar task for you, this guide explains how to remove the skin, plus has helpful tips for how to find and remove any pin bones.
Slice salmon into 1-inch strips, then 1-inch cubes. Set aside.
Step 2: Season salmon
In a medium-sized bowl, mix together panko bread crumbs, sea salt, oregano, paprika, cayenne pepper, black pepper, onion powder and garlic powder. Add cubed salmon and toss until fully coated. Arrange salmon in a single layer on the air fryer tray and cook at 365°F for 6-8 minutes.
Step 3: Toss salmon in honey
Once cooked, drizzle honey over salmon bites, then serve with a quick homemade dip. Either this chipotle aioli or this cilantro dip would be a delicious place to start!
