Preparation
- Make the Greek salmon: Stir together the olive oil, zest, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, dill, paprika, and oregano in a small bowl to form a paste. Rub the mixture evenly over the tops and sides of the salmon fillets.
- Lightly coat the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Place the salmon in the air fryer basket. Cook at 375°F (190°C) for 8–10 minutes, until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the center is opaque.
- While the salmon cooks, make the salad: Place the cucumber, tomatoes, onion, olives, dill, lemon juice, olive oil, and salt in a medium bowl. Toss well to coat.
- Transfer the cooked salmon to plates, and top evenly with the salad.
- Enjoy!
