Tips from Kelvin's Kitchen's video
- Marinate the salmon for at least 30 minutes to soak up all the flavors from the marinade.
- Using aluminum foil in the air fryer basket helps catch the glaze and makes cleanup easier.
- Air fry at 390°F (199°C) for 12 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) for perfectly cooked salmon.
