Method

  1. Wash the broccoli2 and the salmon1; break the broccoli into florets 3–4 cm in size, pat the salmon dry with paper towels, and cut the lemon3 into rounds or halves; preheat the air fryer to 190°C and prepare the basket, brushing with a little oil.

  2. Season the salmon1 with salt and pepper, drizzle with oil and lemon3 juice, and cook on high heat for 10–12 minutes until a golden crust forms and the flesh starts to separate easily, with an internal temperature around 60°C.

  3. Boil the broccoli2 in salted water for 4 minutes until tender but not mushy; ensure there is enough water for the broccoli to float freely, then drain and proceed to the next step.

  4. Steam the broccoli2 with oil and garlic5 for 1–2 minutes, gently toss to distribute the oil; add black pepper if desired.

  5. Arrange the broccoli2 on a plate beside the salmon1 and drizzle a little lemon3 juice or squeeze another lemon wedge for freshness.

  6. Serve immediately; place lemon3 slices nearby for extra acidity; you can pair it with a light side of rice or quinoa if you want a heartier meal.

  7. Tips: you can prep the broccoli2 ahead of time and refrigerate without dressing until cooking; marinate the salmon1 with a light layer of lemon3 juice and herbs for 10–15 minutes beforehand.
