I rarely cook salmon any other way than in the air fryer. It just cooks up so perfectly. This air fryer dill salmon is full of lemony dill flavors, it's quickly become one of my favorites.
Even better? You only need a few ingredients and it's all ready in less than 15 minutes! The first time I made this, I made two salmon fillets and ate them both they were so delicious. Now, I serve this with sides and pace myself.
