recipe

  • Step 1
    Wash & cut the sweet potatoes into small cubes.
  • Step 2
    Add the sweet potatoes to a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil & season with salt, pepper & half of the smoked paprika. Mix well.
  • Step 3
    Place the sweet potatoes in the air fryer basket. Cook in the air fryer for 20 min at 400°F, stirring halfway through cooking.
  • Step 4
    Meanwhile, make the marinade. In a bowl, add the teriyaki sauce, grate in the garlic & season with the remaining smoked paprika & sesame seeds, if using. Mix well.
  • Step 5
    Place the salmon filets in a dish & pour the marinade on top. Flip the salmon to coat it on all sides with the marinade.
  • Step 6
    Place the marinated salmon filets on top of the sweet potatoes in the air fryer basket. Cook in the air fryer at 400°F for 6-8 min, until the salmon is fully cooked. (The salmon should flake easily with a fork.)
  • Step 7
    When the sweet potatoes are tender & the salmon is fully cooked, remove them from the air fryer.
  • Step 8
    Serve the teriyaki salmon & sweet potatoes on a plate with a side salad of lettuce dressed to your taste. Enjoy!

Recipe tip

For a super simple salad dressing, try a drizzle of olive oil, a squeeze of lemon & a pinch of salt! Bright & easy. Times and temperatures vary for all air fryers, so try cooking in batches and avoid overcrowding the basket for even cooking! Always refer to the air fryer manual for best practices & results!
