Salmon fillets go right from freezer to air fryer, making this a fast weeknight meal. Honey balances the smoky heat of canned chipotles and creates a nice sticky glaze.
Ingredients
- 4 cups water
- 2 cups tricolor quinoa
- Cooking spray
- 1 (12 oz) pkg snipped green beans
- 2 (12 oz) pkgs Nature's Promise ® Frozen Atlantic Salmon Fillets
- 4 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, chopped
- 2 tbsp less-sodium soy sauce
Steps
- In a medium pot, bring water to a boil on high. Stir in quinoa. Cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat air fryer to 400°F. Coat basket with cooking spray. Place green beans in air fryer and season with salt and pepper. Spray tops with cooking spray. Air fry until tender, 6 to 7 minutes, tossing halfway through. Transfer to a bowl and cover with foil to keep warm.
- Pat salmon fillets dry and season with salt and pepper. Transfer salmon to air fryer and cook 7 minutes, in batches if needed. While salmon is cooking, in a small bowl, combine honey, chipotle peppers and soy sauce.
- Brush half of the honey-chipotle glaze on salmon fillets and cook until glaze is browned in spots and salmon is cooked through, about 3 to 4 minutes more.
- Fluff quinoa with fork and serve with salmon and green beans. Top with remaining honey-chipotle glaze.
