A 475-calorie Lunch recipe from MunchInIt. Serves 2. Prep 10 min, cook 15 min.

Ingredients

• 2 (4oz/113g each) salmon fillets
• 2 tbsp sumac
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1/2 block (2oz/56g) halloumi cheese, sliced into 1/2-inch thick pieces
• 4 cups mixed greens (e.g., rocket, spinach, romaine)
• 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1/4 cup cucumber, diced
• 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Prep: Pat salmon fillets dry and sprinkle generously with sumac, salt, and pepper. Lightly brush with 1 tbsp olive oil. Slice halloumi.
2. Air Fry Salmon: Preheat air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Place salmon in the air fryer basket and cook for 12-15 minutes, or until cooked through and flaky. Cooking time may vary based on thickness.
3. Air Fry Halloumi: While salmon cooks, place halloumi slices in the air fryer basket (you might need to do this in batches after the salmon, or use a second basket if available). Air fry for 5-7 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and slightly crispy.
4. Prepare Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil, salt, and pepper.
5. Assemble Salad: In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber.
6. Serve: Flake the cooked salmon over the salad, add the air-fried halloumi slices, and drizzle with the lemon dressing. Serve immediately.
