Start by cutting the salmon fillet into bite-sized pieces and place them in a mixing bowl. Drizzle the olive oil over the salmon, followed by the garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss everything together until the salmon is well coated.
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F. Once it's heated, place the seasoned salmon bites into the air fryer basket in a single layer. You may need to work in batches if you're making a larger amount.
Cook the salmon bites for about 8 to 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking. The salmon should be golden and flaky when done.
Remove the salmon bites from the air fryer and let them rest for a few moments before serving. Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce or on their own!
Notes
These salmon bites are a fantastic addition to any meal and are especially great for quick lunches or appetizers at gatherings!
