Description
These teriyaki salmon bites are a quick, healthy and flavorful entree ready in under 30 minutes on the stovetop or in the air fryer.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup liquid aminos
- zest of 1 lime
- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
- 1 Tbs honey
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 tsp ginger paste or minced fresh ginger *see note
- 1 – 2lbs fresh wild caught salmon, cut into 2 inch pieces
Instructions
- In a small mixing bowl combine 1/4 cup liquid aminos (or soy sauce), the zest of 1 lime, 1/4 cup fresh lime juice, 1 Tbs honey, 1 minced garlic clove and 1 tsp ginger paste. Whisk to combine.
- Cut 1 – 2lbs of fresh salmon into 2 inch pieces. Add the fish to the marinade and toss so that all of the pieces are coated. Let the fish marinate for 10 minutes.
If using an air fryer:
- Preheat air fryer to 400F for 10 minutes.
- Place marinated salmon in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving space between pieces.
- Cook for 4 minutes, until salmon is caramelized and crispy.
- Work in batches if needed to avoid overcrowding the basket.
If cooking on the stovetop:
- Preheat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of avocado or coconut oil.
- Use tongs to place marinated salmon pieces in the pan, ensuring they are spaced out.
- Cook salmon for 2-3 minutes per side, until crispy and glazed.
- Work in batches if needed to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Notes
I find ginger paste in the produce section at my local grocery store.
