Ingredients

1 pound salmon skin removed
1 tablespoon butter melted
1 ½ teaspoons seasoning blend Cajun, lemon pepper, or Garlic & Herb, see notes

Instructions

Cut the salmon into 1-inch cubes and place in a mixing bowl.
Pour the melted butter over the salmon and stir gently to coat. Sprinkle on the seasoning blend and stir gently again to coat the salon in the seasoning.
Air Fryer Method: Place the salmon in a single layer in a greased air fryer basket and air fry at 400 degrees for 6 minutes or until salmon is cooked through, gently shaking the basket halfway through cooking.
Stove Top Method: Heat a large skillet with a tablespoon of cooking oil and add the salmon to the skillet. Let sear on one side before stirring. Cook for about 5-6 minutes total, stirring occasionally, until salmon is seared on the outside and cooked through.

Notes

Seasoning: We love this Cajun blend, lemon pepper seasoning, or Kinder's Buttery Garlic & Herb here. You really can use any blend of seasoning you like. Just be sure to taste the seasoning blend first and add salt if it doesn't already contain salt.

Serving: These little salmon bites go perfect in a bowl with riced cauliflower and your favorite steamed or roasted veggies. It’s an easy way to get a nutritious meal on the table quickly.
