Published 7/24/2023 • Updated 8/31/2024 Keep a batch of this homemade salmon rub on hand for making air fryer salmon, pan fried salmon or fiesta salmon rice bowls. This is seriously the best salmon seasoning and our go-to in the Fit Foodie kitchen! It uses a short list of very simple spices (garlic forward with a hint of paprika) that packs big flavor but doesn’t overpower the amazing taste of salmon itself. We love using this seasoning for salmon for any cook-method, but especially when grilling salmon smoking salmon, or air frying it because it helps create almost like a crust-like outside.
