Equipment
- Air fryer
- Mixing bowl
- Tongs or spatula
- Knife
- Cutting board
- Paper towels
- Measuring spoons
Ingredients
- 2 salmon fillets skin removed, cut into bite-sized cubes
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika smoked or regular
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp chili flakes optional
- 1 tbsp chopped parsley optional, for garnish
- Lemon wedges optional, for serving
Notes

- For best crisping, cook in a single layer and work in batches if needed.
- If reheating later, pull the salmon 30–60 seconds early so it stays tender.
