Air Fryer Cajun Salmon Foil Packets are an easy and quick weeknight air fryer recipe. This low carb seafood recipe with broccoli and corn is done in less than 30 minutes and has very little clean up, perfect for a weeknight dinner
Tear off 2 sheets of aluminum foil about 16-18 inches long and place on a flat surface.
In the center of 1 sheet of aluminum foil put ½ cup canned corn.
On top of the corn, add 1 piece of salmon. Around the salmon put 1 cup of chopped broccoli.
Using about 2 teaspoons of cajun seasoning, liberally season the salmon and broccoli.
Cut ½ tablespoon of butter into 4-6 small pieces and dot it among the broccoli. Sprinkle broccoli lightly with salt.
Repeat with the second piece of salmon.
Fold the foil packets up to keep juicy and steam inside. Place both packets in the air fryer basket and cook for 15-20 minutes until salmon is 145 F internally or flakey to touch. Broccoli should be fork tender.
Remove from the foil packets and serve with fresh lime wedges.
Notes
Timing will vary depending on how thick cut your salmon is and your air fryer.
Try to buy evenly cut pieces of salmon.
Keep salmon packets in a single layer and do not over crowd the basket.
