Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Preheat your Ninja Air Fryer to 390°F–400°F (200°C) for 3 minutes so the basket is screaming hot before food goes in.
2
Pat salmon fillets dry with paper towels and toss in a bowl with white miso paste, mirin, and sesame oil.
3
Arrange in a single uncrowded layer in the crisper basket and mist lightly with avocado oil spray.
4
Air fry at 390°F (200°C) for 9 minutes, shaking the basket or flipping halfway through until golden and crisp (165°F internal for poultry).
5
Top with soy sauce and let rest 2 minutes before serving.

💡 Chef Tips for Best Results

  • ✓Never overcrowd the air fryer basket—leaving space around each piece allows 360° superheated air to crisp every side.
  • ✓Use a non-aerosol olive or avocado oil mister rather than propellant sprays to protect your non-stick basket coating.
  • ✓Reheat leftovers in the air fryer at 360°F for 3–4 minutes to restore 100% of the original crunch.

🧊 Storage, Freezing & Safe Reheating

Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container at 40°F (4°C) for up to 4 days, or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat to 165°F (74°C) before serving.
