To air fry salmon at 400°F, the cooking time generally ranges between 6 to 12 minutes depending on the thickness of the fillets and your desired doneness.
- For typical 6-ounce salmon fillets, a common recommendation is to air fry for about 7 to 9 minutes
- Thinner pieces may take as little as 6 minutes, while thicker fillets might need up to 10-12 minutes
- The salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork or reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C)
You can check doneness partway through and add an extra 1-2 minutes if needed. No preheating is strictly necessary, but if you do preheat, 400°F is the target temperature
. In summary, air frying salmon at 400°F typically takes about 7-10 minutes for most fillets, adjusting slightly for thickness and personal preference.
