Ingredients
Scale
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 4 (5–6 oz each) salmon fillets
- 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
- 1 olive oil spray
- 1 lemon wedges (for serving)

Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F and spritz the air fryer basket with olive oil.
- In a small bowl, combine the salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
