Perfectly Moist Air Fryer Salmon

My dad jokes that my favorite baby food wasn’t the typical baby food bought from a store. Instead, I preferred salmon as it was just so moist and easy to chew. Salmon is still one of my favorites. It’s flavorful and quick to make. Although this recipe doesn’t need to be marinated overnight, it does make an exponential difference in the flavor of the salmon.
