These salmon bites are fantastic – with just a handful of ingredients and minimal prep time, you can create a delicious and nutritious meal for any night of the week! Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, these bites are bursting with flavor. With the convenience of the air fryer and ability to prep ahead, this makes a super convenient and fast meal with minimal cleanup.
While the salmon has more of a southwestern style seasoning on it, you can mix the seasoning up and use whatever you want. If you prefer Asian flavors, use garlic, ginger, and chili paste. If you prefer Mediterranean, you can use lemon zest, cilantro, basil, and a touch of balsamic. Mix and match the veggies to fit your cravings – just remember to adjust cook time where needed.
