Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, gently toss the salmon cubes with kosher salt and black pepper until evenly coated. Set aside.
  2. In the same bowl, add melted butter, lemon juice, and minced garlic. Toss to coat the salmon evenly.
  3. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3 minutes. Line the basket with parchment paper. Arrange the salmon in a single layer and air fry for 5 to 7 minutes, checking for doneness.
  4. Remove the salmon bites from the air fryer and drizzle with remaining lemon garlic butter. Serve hot with a green salad or quinoa.
