Ingredients
- 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
- 2 large sweet potatoes, cut into wedges
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato wedges with olive oil, garlic powder, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3-5 minutes.
- Place the seasoned sweet potato wedges in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
- While the sweet potatoes are cooking, season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Dredge each fillet in flour, shaking off the excess.
