This recipe for air-fryer hot-honey salmon bites is simple and declicous!
Servings: 3
Calories: 254kcal
Ingredients
- 2 Salmon filets, chopped into cubes (392 g)
- 2 tsp Hot honey (10 g)
- 1/4 tsp Kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp Garlic powder
- 1/8 tsp Paprika
- Pinch of black pepper
- 1 tsp Olive oil (5 g)
Instructions
- Thaw salmon if it’s frozen by placing in the fridge overnight or in a bowl of water for about 30 minutes. (I run under warm water for 10 if needed in a pinch, but don’t quote me!)
- Preheat the airfryer by turning on to 400 while you prep your salmon. (Not essential but it helps!)
- Pat salmon dry and chop into bite-sized cubes.
- Drizzle with hot honey, and sprinkle with seasoning. My measurements are estimates since I really just sprinkle everything on top.
- Spray with a quick mist of olive oil spray and add to your hot air fryer. Cook at 400 for 5-7 minutes. I prefer just five minutes!
- Enjoy on rice bowls or salads, or tucked into tacos or wraps. There’s something extra yummy about perfect little salmon bites! We love them over rice with cucumbers, carrots, avocado, and a little sriracha mayo!
Notes
Salmon: Use whatever you love! This is calculated using the Costco Atlantic Salmon. You can definitely use wild-caught which will lower fats quite a bit. Macros using Costco’s frozen wild caught sockeye salmon at 8 fat/6 oz portion = 200 calories, 8 fat, 2.7 carbs, 29.4 protein, 0 fiber. Find in MFP with “Lillie Eats and Tells Hot Honey Salmon Bites, Sockeye.”
Hot honey: This has become so popular, you can find it at most stores near the honey. But you can also just swap in regular honey! We’re not using a lot of it, so it won’t make a huge difference. Hot honey just has a little infused chili and heat. YUM.
Sriracha Mayo: just whisk together a few tablespoons of mayo (we use lite), 1-2 tsp sriracha, and 2-3 tsp water to thin it out. I’ll write this up with calculations soon, but in the mean time, just log the mayo you use (in a slightly lesser portion than you take to account for the water and sriracha!)
GF/DF: Naturally!
