DIRECTIONS
- To prepare the salmon and asparagus in the air fryer: After using a paper towel to pat dry, place the salmon filets on a shallow plate.
- Combine the lemon juice, melted butter, parsley, salt, pepper, and grated garlic in a small bowl. Coat the fish thoroughly by massaging with half of the marinade. Allow to sit for at least ten minutes.
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F, or 200°C. When ready, place the asparagus and salmon fillets in the air fryer basket. If desired, you can use the marinade to season the asparagus instead of just salt and pepper. Fry for 8 to 10 minutes, or until a fork can easily pierce the salmon.
- Present the salmon and asparagus from the air fryer right away, using the remaining half of the marinade or sauce on the side, if preferred. Have fun! ❤️
