Air Fryer Stuffed Salmon

Once again I have found another great dish to do in my Air Fryer.  I love salmon.  I love it just about any where there is accept outside my house.  I have never found salmon in a restaurant that I have liked.  Maybe I’m just biased, but I do like my versions best.  I think you might as well.

This is a quick and easy recipe you can do in an air fryer and not worry about heating up your kitchen.

Ingredients:

• Four 6 oz Salmon filets
• 1 cup crab meat, pulled apart (if you can’t get fresh you can use imitation)
• ½ bread seasoned bread crumbs
• 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1 clove fresh garlic, minced
• ¼ sweet onion diced
• 2 tablespoons hot sauce (optional)
• Salt & pepper (to taste)
• 1/4 honey
• 1 teaspoon brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon bourbon.

1. Wash the salmon filets and then slice down the middle to form a pouch by opening up into a small circle
2. Combine the crab, bread crumbs, cream cheese, garlic, onion, hot sauce and salt and pepper in a small bowl.  Try not to break up the crab meat to much.
3. Divide and spoon the mixture into the 4 salmon pieces.
4. Combine the honey, brown sugar and bourbon in a small bowl and set aside.
5. Place the stuffed salmon in air fryer basket or tray in place in air fryer.
6. Set air fryer to 400°F and cook for about 18-20 minutes
7. Brush the honey mixture onto the salmon when there’s about 3 minutes left in cooking process.  Don’t do from beginning or it may burn.
8. Cook till salmon is flaky and cooked through (145° internal temp).
