- In a small bowl, whisk together honey, low-sodium soy sauce, and minced garlic. Divide into two portions—one for the salmon marinade and one to drizzle after cooking.
- Pat salmon fillets dry with paper towels and brush one portion of the marinade generously over the top. Let marinate at room temperature for 20-30 minutes.
- Preheat air fryer to 400°F for 3-5 minutes.
- Place salmon fillets skin-side down into the air fryer basket. Cook for 7-8 minutes or until flaky and slightly crisp.
- Drizzle the reserved marinade over the salmon and garnish with toasted sesame seeds and green onions.
