A fresh, healthy dinner that feels special but takes just 20 minutes: succulent salmon fillets and tender courgettes, lightly seasoned and air-fried to perfection.

Low in fat, high in omega-3s, and perfect with a squeeze of lemon or a simple salad. Ideal for midweek meals or light summer evenings.

Ingredients

  • 4 salmon fillets (approx. 150g each), skin on or off
  • 4 medium courgettes (about 600g total), sliced into 1cm rounds
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (or 1 Actifry spoonful)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Optional: juice of ½ lemon, fresh dill or parsley for garnish

Tip: Pat salmon dry before seasoning. This helps achieve a better sear in the air fryer.

Method

Step 1

Prep Ingredients: Pat salmon fillets dry with kitchen paper. Season both sides lightly with salt and pepper. Slice courgettes into even rounds.

Step 2

Load Air Fryer: For Actifry 2-in-1: Place courgettes in the bowl with paddle. Add salmon fillets to the upper tray. Drizzle oil over both layers. For standard air fryer: Toss courgettes with oil, salt, and pepper. Place in basket. Lay salmon fillets on top (skin side down if skin-on).

Step 3

Cook: Actifry: Select the “Fish” programme or set to 160°C for 15 minutes. Standard air fryer: Cook at 180°C (350°F) for 12–15 minutes, until salmon flakes easily and courgettes are tender with slight golden edges.

Step 4

Serve: Plate salmon and courgettes together. Squeeze over fresh lemon juice and scatter with herbs if using.


Serving Suggestion: Pair with new potatoes, quinoa, or a crisp green salad.
