Ingredients
- 2 (4oz) salmon fillets
- 1 red bell pepper, deseeded and sliced
- 1 orange bell pepper, deseeded and sliced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp lime juice
- 1 tsp chipotle powder
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 1/8 tsp black pepper
- Fresh cilantro, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). In a medium bowl, toss the sliced bell peppers with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Air Fry: Place the seasoned bell peppers in the air fryer basket and cook for 10-12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until tender-crisp and slightly charred.
- Prepare Salmon: While the peppers are cooking, pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel. In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, lime juice, chipotle powder, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
- Season Salmon: Brush the chipotle-lime mixture evenly over both sides of the salmon fillets.
- Air Fry Salmon: Once the peppers are done, remove them from the air fryer. Place the salmon fillets in the air fryer basket and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until cooked through and flaky, depending on thickness and desired doneness.
- Serve: Divide the roasted bell peppers and air-fried salmon between two plates. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro.
