Steps

1. Preheat air fryer to 400°F.
2. Lightly oil salmon and season with San Felipe's SPG salt pepper, garlic.
3. Air fry 7–10 minutes, until it flakes but stays moist.
4. Spoon chimichurri over the hot salmon and finish with lemon.

Why this works

Air fryer heat sets the surface quickly. Chimichurri added at the end delivers brightness without burning or turning bitter.

Pro tip

Pull early and rest 2 minutes. Add chimichurri after cooking—fresh herbs hate high heat.
