Description

Air Fryer Honey Orange Glazed Salmon is tender, flaky, and coated in a sweet-tangy citrus glaze that caramelizes in minutes. A healthy, high-protein dinner for busy weeknights.

Ingredients 

For the honey-orange glaze:

  • ¼ cup honey
  • ¼ cup fresh orange juice
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce, or tamari for gluten-free
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon orange zest, grated
  • ½ teaspoon salt, to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper, to taste

For the salmon:

  • 4 salmon fillets, 6–8 oz each

Instructions

  • Whisk together honey, orange juice, soy sauce, olive oil, garlic, ginger, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  • Place fillets in a shallow dish or resealable bag, coat with the glaze, cover, and refrigerate 30 minutes (up to 2 hours).
  • Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 3–5 minutes.
  • Arrange fillets with space between each. Air fry 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway, until they flake easily and reach 145°F (63°C).
  • Brush with reserved glaze and sprinkle with orange zest before serving.

Equipment

  • Air Fryer
  • Cooking Spray
  • Parchment Paper, optional

Notes

Notes: Don't overcrowd the basket. Refrigerate up to 3 days, freeze up to 2 months, reheat at 325°F for 3–5 minutes. Serve with jasmine rice or grilled zucchini.
