The ultimate weeknight "cheat code." In less than 30 minutes, you get flaky, caramelized salmon with a crust that’s packed with Phlippen flavour. No mess, no stress—just pure taste.
Prep: 25m (includes marinating) | Cook: 20m | Heat: Your Choice (Mild to Hot)
Ingredients:
-
2 large Salmon fillets (fresh or thawed)
-
1/2 cup of your favourite Phlippens Sauce (Original, Hot, Sweet Heat, or Jerk)
-
Optional: A pinch of sea salt for the skin
-
Optional: Lemon wedges for serving
The Gear:
-
Air Fryer
-
Basting brush
-
Small tray for marinating
Instructions:
-
The Phlippen Rub: Place your salmon on a tray and pour your chosen Phlippens Sauce over the fillets. Rub it in well, ensuring the top and sides are completely coated.
-
The Wait: Let it sit and marinate for 20-30 minutes. This allows the smoke and spices to penetrate the fish.
-
The First Blast: Place the salmon in the air fryer basket. Set it to 390°F and cook for 10 minutes.
-
The Glaze: Open the basket and brush on another layer of Phlippens Sauce. This second layer creates that sticky, gorgeous glaze we’re after.
-
The Finish: Slide it back in for another 10 minutes. The edges should be slightly charred and the sauce perfectly caramelized.
-
The Final Call: Serve as-is, or if you’re a true sauce boss, add one more drizzle of Phlippens before you dig in.
Phlippen Tip: Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket. You want the air to circulate so the edges of the salmon get that signature crispy finish.
