Ingredients
  

  • ½ lemon unwaxed, zested and juiced
  • ½ lime zested and juiced
  • 300 g cherry tomatoes or baby tomatoes, approx 30 tomatoes
  • 4 cloves garlic or 2 plump ones, like in the photos
  • 4 fillets salmon
  • 1 teaspoon mixed herbs
  • ¼ teaspoons sweet smoked paprika
  • 2 pinches salt I used fine pink Himalayan salt (Maldon salt would be great too)

Instructions
 

  • Add all ingredients to the air fryer in order mentioned. If your air fryer has a removable crisper plate / tray with holes, I recommend removing it. No need to stir or mix.
  • Air fry 180°C for 10 minutes. You can start either with skin side up or down, flip the salmon fillets twice throughout cooking. If you want the skin crispy, keep skin side mostly up for the duration.
    In Ninja Crispi use Air Fry function for 10 minutes followed by the Roast 5 minutes. Let it rest for 1-2 minutes before removing lid and serving. Add more time if not fully cooked, this will depend on the size of the salmon fillets. For a side of salmon, you’ll need to add about 5 more minutes but it will be delicious too.
  • Tip: You can serve the tomatoes as is at the end or blend them into a sauce. We served as is as we love air fried baby tomatoes.
  • We served it with pressure cooked sticky sushi rice and long-stem broccoli steamed in the Always pan but it's perfect as is too for a light meal.
