Air Fryer Salmon

• Preheat your air fryer to 390°F| 199°C.
• Pat dry the salmon with paper towels. Cut into 1-inch cubes, using a sharp knife.
• In a medium bowl combine the olive oil, lemon juice, smoked paprika, garlic, salt and pepper.
• Add the salmon bites and gently toss to coat.
• Place the salmon bites in your air fryer basket in a single layer.  You might need to cook them in batches. Air fry for 8 minutes at 390 F| 199 C. Flip them over halfway through, or shake the basket at the halfway mark if the basket isn’t too crowded. The internal temperature should reach 140-145°F once it is cooked through. Transfer to a bowl.

Garlic Cream Sauce

• While the salmon is cooking, make the garlic cream sauce.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Pour in the chicken broth and cook for 2 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to low-medium, add the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper.
• Add the Parmesan cheese and cook until the cheese melts and the sauce thickens.  Remove from the heat and add in the lemon juice.
• Garnish with fresh parsley.
• Pour the garlic cream sauce over the salmon bites.
• Serve over  mashed potatoes or steamed rice.
• Enjoy!
