Cajun Air Fryer Salmon

Excellent use of the air fryer. I will cook for 7 minutes next time as I like mine a little medium rare. I did find it very salty and I used "Slap Ya Moma" cajun spice. I will have to make my own cajun mixture next time or consider adding more brown sugar.

It was amazing! Thanks for this awesome recipe!

I was looking for a teriyaki salmon recipe via air fryer- this was the closest I could find for what I needed, so my review is more based on the cooking method for this recipe, not the Cajun flavor! And, it really is a great recipe, as far as the simplicity & cook time. While Cajun also sounds fantastic (will try that version next round!) I used a basic teriyaki marinade for 2 hours before air frying. The cook temp is spot-on. But, 8 minutes was a bit too long- borderline dry, even with using a marinade. I’d suggest doing 6 minutes & checking it. I’d also suggest using olive or vegetable oil on the fish, instead of cooking spray. However- you shouldn’t need to spray (or oil) the fish, itself, since fish already has a natural oil to it! Instead of opting to rinse & dry, just season as-is & only use the spray for the actual basket/pan before placing the fish to cook. The purpose of cooking spray is to keep it from sticking- otherwise, I can’t see it adding much besides a compromised flavor. The simplicity of this makes it very versatile & convenient, which is why I was able to use it for my basic teriyaki marinated filets- turned out great, and I’m definitely wanting to try the Cajun version, now!
