This teriyaki salmon air fryer recipe is healthy and delicious! The salmon is marinated in a homemade teriyaki sauce, then cooked to perfection in the air fryer. This dish is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. Plus, it's healthy and packed with protein!
Combine the teriyaki sauce ingredients in a large bowl and whisk until the sugar has dissolved.
Place the salmon in the bowl with the teriyaki marinade and coat evenly. Let the salmon marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 2 hours.
Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Place the salmon in the air fryer basket and cook for 5-6 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through (the internal temperature should reach at least 145 degrees Fahrenheit).
While the salmon is cooking, transfer the leftover marinade to a small saucepan and cook over medium heat until the sauce has thickened.
Brush the salmon with the glaze and serve over steamed rice and vegetables. Enjoy!
