MOLINE, Ill. — It's that time of the week again, and we're here to help you with all your meal-prepping needs!
News 8's Shelby Kluver and Hy-Vee Registered Dietician Nina Struss show you how to whip up some air-fried salmon bites that are healthy, crispy and tasty!
Serves 4
All you need:
- 1 lb. Bristol Bay Sockeye Salmon Fillets
- 1 Cup pistachios, roasted, unsalted and shelled
- ½ cup Hy-Vee Italian seasoned panko breadcrumbs
- 3 tbsp. Hy-Vee grated Parmesan cheese
- ½ cup honey mustard dressing
- ½ cup Hy-Vee sour cream
- 2 tbsp. Italian parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
- Hy-Vee salt, to taste
- Hy-Vee black pepper, to taste
All you do:
- Preheat air fryer to 400 degrees according to manufacturer's directions. Remove skin from salmon and pat dry with paper towels. Cut salmon into 1-inch pieces.
- Place pistachios in food processor or blender. Cover and pulse until finely chopped. Add bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Cover and pulse until combined. Transfer mixture to a shallow bowl. Place honey mustard dressing in another shallow bowl. Dip salmon pieces into dressing and then immediately into pistachio mixture, turning to coat.
- Spray air fryer basket with nonstick spray. Place coated salmon pieces in a single layer in basket. Lightly spray pieces with nonstick spray. Close air fryer and air-fry 10 to 12 minutes or until salmon flakes easily with a fork (145 degrees), turning halfway through. Repeat air-frying as necessary with remaining coated salmon pieces.
- Meanwhile, stir together sour cream, parsley, and lemon juice. Season to taste with salt and black pepper. Serve nuggets with sour cream mixture and garnish with lemon wedges.
