Air Fryer Orange Salmon with Avocado Salsa

Salmon and orange pair beautifully together, and here we use the citrus in two ways. First, orange marmalade and Dijon mustard make a tangy-sweet glaze for the fish. Then, a salsa made with avocado, scallion and orange segments finishes the dish for a pop of freshness and color.

Ingredients:

  • 4 skin-on salmon fillets (4 to 6 ounces each)
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground pepper
  • 2 scallions, trimmed
  • 3 tablespoons orange marmalade
  • 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
  • ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • 2 oranges
  • 1 avocado, diced

Directions:

  1. Preheat air fryer to 400℉. Coat a sheet of foil with cooking spray. Pat salmon dry; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  2. Mince white parts of scallions, then thinly slice green parts; set the green parts aside. Combine the scallion whites, marmalade, mustard and crushed red pepper to taste in a small bowl.
  3. Arrange the salmon, skin-side down, in a single layer on the foil. Brush tops and sides with the marmalade glaze. Transfer the salmon on the foil to the air-fryer basket. Cook until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 14 minutes (or 4 to 6 minutes per 1/2-inch thickness).
  4. Meanwhile, suprême oranges into a medium bowl (see Tip). Squeeze the juice from the orange membranes into the bowl. Add avocado and the reserved sliced scallion greens. Serve the salmon with the salsa.
