US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Spray the air fryer basket with any cooking oil spray (I use sunflower oil). Or, you can line the air fryer basket with a liner or a piece of greaseproof paper.
Set the air fryer to 338°F/ 170°C then set its timer for 15 minutes and turn on.
Prepare the salmon and cut in big chunks or dice.
Place the fish in a bowl and add the teriyaki sauce in. Gently stir the fish and make sure every piece of the fish is well coated with the sauce.
Then take the air fryer lid off and using a tong, carefully put the salmon bites in the air fryer basket. Try your best to spread them in just one layer.
Put the lid back on and air fryer for about 10-12 minutes or until the salmon is thoroughly cooked but not overcooked.
Serve the salmon bites with shredded lettuce, slice cucumber, carrot and avocado.

Notes

If your salmon has skin and you need to take it off while you preheat the air fryer, make sure you will have at least 10 minutes left on the timer. If not, just add the time to air fry the fish.
You can make your own sauce by mixing 1 tablespoon/ 15 milliliters of Japanese soy sauce and 1 tablespoon/ 15 milliliters of Hoisin sauce.
