Air Fryer Salmon Bites with Broccoli

The air fryer to the rescue in these Air Fryer Salmon Bites with Broccoli. A simple marinade for the salmon is the secret ingredient and only needs 20 minutes to add flavor to the salmon and keep it moist while cooking. To make it a complete meal, serve these with air fryer broccoli over rice with my favorite Bang Bang Sauce on top.
Salmon and broccoli are essential weeknight ingredients at my house, but we can always use a different way to serve them. The air fryer turns out to be a great solution, cooking everything fast, and resulting in the most tender, flavorful bites of salmon that I’m tempted to eat piping hot right out of the air fryer.
But don’t do that! Because the real star is turning these air fryer salmon bites into rice bowls with broccoli, sesame seeds, and delicious bang bang sauce.
