One of the quickest dinners I know, perfect for those busy weekday evenings! When serving with rice, I make a little extra sauce to prevent any dryness, but I also love this recipe as a summer evening meal with salad... especially in the sunshine!

For the Sauce

25gbutter

1 Tbsplemon juice

60mlcream

½ tspgarlic powder

For the Salmon

2salmon fillets

½ tspolive oil

1 tspgarlic granules

1 ½ tspsalt

1 ½ tsppepper

1 ½ tspmixed herbs

Instructions

Step 1

Mix the salt, pepper, mixed herbs and garlic granules together to create the coating.

Step 2

Add the olive oil to each salmon fillet, then use the coating to coat the fish. I find it easiest to pour some over the top, rub it in, then flip from side to side to ensure full coverage!

Step 3

Pre-heat your air fryer for 2 minutes, then place in the air fryer on 180C for 10 minutes.

Step 4

For the sauce, place all sauce ingredients in a microwaveable dish, and heat for 20 second intervals, stirring each time. This normally takes me around 3 times.

Step 5

Serve the salmon hot with a drizzle of the sauce over the top.
