These Hot Honey Salmon Bites are a perfect blend of sweet and savory, with a touch of heat from the hot honey glaze. Air-fried to perfection, these salmon bites are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Ingredients

Scale

Salmon Bites:

  • 1 ½ pounds salmon, (about 4 filets, skins removed, cut into 1-inch cubes)
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

Hot Honey Glaze:

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, (room temperature)
  • ¼ cup (85 g) hot honey, (homemade or store-bought)
  • parsley, (chopped for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat air fryer. Preheat the air fryer to 390°F.*
  2. Combine salmon with seasonings. In a large bowl, combine oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Add salmon bites and gently toss to coat.
  3. Cook salmon in air fryer. Place the salmon bites into the basket of an air fryer in an even layer. Air fry for 9-10 minutes, or until the salmon reaches an internal temperature of 140-145°F, shaking the basket halfway through cooking.
  4. Heat butter with hot honey. Add cooked salmon bites. To a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the butter and hot honey. Once melted and warmed through, turn off the heat. Add the cooked salmon bites. Gently toss to coat.
  5. Garnish with parsley. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Make sure to remove the salmon skins before cutting into cubes for the best texture.
  • Adjust the amount of hot honey based on your spice preference.
  • For a crispier finish, you can air fry the salmon for an extra minute.
