Ninja CRISPi salmon is so easy to make. The salmon cooks in the Ninja Crispi and comes out perfectly flaky and delicious. Such an easy weeknight dinner or easy lunch.
I just got a Ninja Crispi and I'm already in love. The glass tray, the ease of use, and the easy cleanup? I'm a fan.
And this Ninja Crispi salmon is a recipe I'll be coming back to again and again. It's flaky. It's delicious. I made it for my son and I and we both loved it. If you're cooking for more people, simply double or triple the recipe.
Ingredients
- Salmon fillets
- Olive oil
- Garlic powder
- Smoked paprika
- Salt
- Pepper
- Lemon (optional)
How to make Ninja Crispi salmon
Pat salmon dry with paper towels and put on a plate.

Drizzle with olive oil and run olive oil into all surfaces. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder and smoked paprika.

Place in the Ninja CRISPi air fryer.

Set to the "Air Fry" setting and cook for 9-12 minutes. (See notes).

Serve with a squeeze of lemon and enjoy!

Recipe tips
- For cook times, if you have a thicker cut of salmon, you may want to cook to 11-12 minutes. For thinner fillets, cook 9-10 minutes. Salmon should be cooked to an internal temperature of at least 145 degrees F.
- If you want to double or triple the recipe, simply double or triple the ingredients. The cook time will remain the same.
- Get creative with the seasonings! I love the flavor combination in this particular recipe, but so many seasonings are delicious on salmon.
- If cooking in a regular air fryer (not a Ninja CRISPi), cook at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
