Craziest air fryer food: Fresh green beans, spritzed with avocado oil and some sea salt, cooked until they are brown on the tips and still al-dente.
Observation: I noticed you’re using 1 tsp of salt for the couscous at 8:07 ? It seems like a lot with the boxed store-bought chicken broth since they are already pretty high sodium.
I hope ATK will sometime address where their salmon is sourced. It looks like it is farmed. I don’t know any way of choosing better salmon than the worst of the farmed stuff. Any wild that I’ve had is tough no matter how I cook it (seems very lean) and I wonder whether it has thawed and been refrozen. 🤞
Any suggestions to make this gluten free?
No air fryer but delicious nonetheless made in convection oven. Thanks!
I made this the other day but instead of pistachios, I used walnuts. I also kept the skin of the salmon. Heated a pan to medium high, seasoned the salmon skin (lemon pepper), and placed that side down on the hot pan for 2-3 minutes. Then I transferred the fish to the sprayed foil sling (extra measure so the skin doesn't stick), and proceeded to top (mustard & nuts) as normal. Served with caesar salad on the side and that was our great dinner. 😀
Good4 GLow'N Skin Lol
I make the Cook's Illustrated falafel by Steve Dunn in the air fryer. I brush it with a bit of oil and it browns and crisps beautifully.
My husband loves salmon, but I don't eat it or like cooking it because I can't stand the smell of seafood. I'm known as the unselfish vegetarian in my house and I have cooked a lot of Ash's recipes, but fish is hard. Any ideas on how to mask the odor? Appreciate any suggestions. Thanks.
This looks great.i was wondering why not on the sides of the fish? I'll try it both ways. I still don't have a airfryer but these will cook up great indirect in the webber kettle. As to the salmon I'll use fresh caught Chinook salmon. It's that time of year again. 😋🎣🐟🔥
I just made this and THANK YOU! Love it so much. I made one mistake that made a huge difference: I preheated my Air Fryer. Salmon was over cooked. 🙁 I may reduce the cooking time to by a minute or two to temp salmon then put back into fryer to finish it off. I will also salt the bottom sides of the fish. Thank You Ashley and ATK!!
This sounds great. It just needs a vegetable–the greenery of the salmon topping makes me think broccoli would pair well with this.
Delectable! My fave nut and one of my fave fish.
Thanks for the recipe! Perfect for dinner or lunch or breakfast!
I'm cuckoo for couscous, cuckoo for couscous, cuckoo for couscous!
Can you show us a recipe for how to cook shrimp in the airfryer?
Okay but tell me more about those Hormel minis in the fridge 😍
Great recipe, I want this!
1:09 fun fact: The reason japanese breadcrumbs don't get as dusty or lose their crispness is because the bread is cooked through electric currents. This causes the bread to more or less cook from the inside out which makes it crustless and causes tons of air to be stuck inside the dough while it dries out before grinding. That's also why you can crush up panko into much smaller pieces like traditional breadcrumbs yet it'll still be way crispier.
I think this would be just as good and "quick" when cooked in a regular oven.
I made pistachio crusted salmon before. It was delicious. My recipe called for mustard and honey mixed together and coating the fish with it, then add the topping. So good too
Fennel seeds need to not exist.
So, pistachios.
I had almost four pounds of pistachios, but my adult son asked me to stop eating them, & do research on them, WHILE looking at them. OK. What?! Really!?
Wasps!! Big holes in nearly every pistachio!
What's happening here?!
I'm 60 + years, and I've NEVER seen anything like this before!
It takes a LOT to truly shock me. I'm still flabbergasted!!
I highly recommend that everyone look very closely at each single pistachio BEFORE YOU put it in your mouth….. to chew it. 😳
Love my air fryer. Besides chicken, french fries. I've made pizza, cupcakes, quesadillas in the air fryer. I plan on trying cookies in it next.
Would the same time and temp work in a oven air fryer for the pistachio salmon recipe?
Thank you for this recipe. It looks delicious! I was wondering what I could use instead of Greek yogurt for lactose intolerant people as a binder for the topppings? 🙂
Hi ATK
Salutations from California 😋
Would parchment paper work as well as aluminum foil?
Looks delicious!
Thanks for tips. Made some pistachio crusted fish last week. Really like your other tips like fennel & yogurt with couscous. I have that air fryer
I like my salmon cooked all the way through so no rare in any way at all. I am a human not a bear LOL
I was just wondering what to cook for dinner. This looks amazing. 👌
Lots of love and blessings from India 🇮🇳
Oh, yummy! 😋 We have Salmon 4-5 times a month and have cooked it in a variety of ways, pan-fried, oven-baked, grilled, smoked, etc. We also enjoy fresh whole shelled and ground pistachios as a tasty topping for many dishes (including ice cream). Adding Yogurt is an exciting idea, and we will try that next time ~ Thanks, Ashley! 🥰
Looks delicious! I can't wait to try this. Checking my ads for salmon deals.
Do dishwasher salmon next!
