Ingredients
Salmon:
- 1 lb. skinless Atlantic salmon cut into bite size pieces
- 2 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp salt, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano & dried thyme
- 1/2 tsp ground cayenne & black pepper
Bowls:
- 2 cups cooked rice (280g) any kind, I used sticky rice
- 4 cups chopped romaine or green leaf lettuce (240g)
- 4 Tbsp finely grated parmesan (48g) 48g
- 4 Tbsp lite Caesar dressing I used Ken’s
Instructions
- Whisk the paprika, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, dried thyme, cayenne pepper and black pepper together then toss the salmon bites with the seasoning mix.
- Spray air fryer basket with cooking spray. Add the salmon bites (with space in between so they aren’t touching). Cook at 400F for 5 minutes then toss/flip and cook another 5 minutes, or until the salmon is no longer pink.
- Meanwhile, prepare the salad. If serving immediately you can go ahead and toss the chopped lettuce, parmesan and caesar dressing together. Otherwise if planning to eat some later, wait to add dressing until ready to serve. Season with a little salt and cracked black pepper to taste.
- Divide everything between four bowls. Top with extra parmesan or dressing if desired and enjoy!
Notes
Meal prep tip: Wait to toss lettuce with caesar dressing until ready to serve to keep it crisp.
Each bowl ~ 1/4 of the salmon bites (85g), 1/2 cup rice (70g) & caesar salad
