Step 1

Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a large bowl, toss the zucchini, peppers, and onion with olive oil and ¼ teaspoon of salt.

Step 3

Arrange the vegetables in a single layer in the air fryer basket. You may need to cook them in batches, depending on the size of your air fryer. Air fry for 10-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until tender and lightly browned. Remove from the air fryer and set aside.

Step 4

While the vegetables are cooking, sprinkle the salmon portions with the remaining ¼ teaspoon of salt and the ground pepper.

Step 5

Place the salmon, skin-side down, in the air fryer basket in a single layer. You may need to cook in batches. Air fry for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary based on the thickness of the salmon.

Step 6

Once cool enough to handle, roughly chop the air-fried vegetables and toss together in a large bowl.

Step 7

Remove the skin from the salmon fillets (if desired) and serve alongside the vegetables.

Step 8

Garnish each serving with 1 tablespoon fresh basil and a lemon wedge.
