Crispy Air Fryer Salmon is crispy and golden on the outside, yet buttery and juicy on the inside, all in just 15 minutes from start to finish. It's the easiest way to achieve perfectly cooked salmon every time! I have also included roasting it in the oven instructions, if you do not have an air fryer.
