Air Fryer Peach Salmon
Description
Air Fryer Peach Salmon with a sticky honey-peach glaze and caramelized fresh peach slices. Ready in 15 minutes — an easy, healthy summer dinner.
Ingredients
- 2 salmon fillets, about 6 oz each, skin-on
- 2 peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced 1/4 inch thick
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce, or tamari for gluten-free
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice, freshly squeezed
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt, plus more for seasoning
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, plus more for seasoning
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine the honey, soy sauce, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Heat over medium, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 7 minutes until the glaze thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- Pat the salmon fillets completely dry with paper towels. Brush both sides with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Place the fillets in the air fryer basket skin-side down, leaving space between them.
- Arrange the peach slices over the top of each fillet, pressing gently so they adhere.
- Air fry for 8 to 10 minutes, depending on thickness.
- During the last 2 minutes, brush the fillets generously with the peach glaze and let it set.
- Cook until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) and the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
- Remove from the basket, drizzle with any remaining glaze, and serve immediately.
Equipment
- Cooking Spray
- Parchment Paper, optional
Notes
Glaze during the final 2 minutes only — honey burns at 400°F. Peaches should be sliced no thinner than 1/4 inch. The glaze can be made up to 3 days ahead and refrigerated.
