Instructions
Pat salmon dry with paper towels and sprinkle salmon with salt.
In a medium sized bowl or container with lid, whisk together maple syrup, gochujang, vinegar, soy sauce, and olive oil.
Add the salmon filets and gently toss to coat completely.
Cover and refrigerate for 4-6 hours.
When it’s time to cook, remove the salmon from the refrigerator.
If using the air-fryer:
Spray the basket with nonstick spray, lift the salmon from the marinade and shake off excess. Place the salmon skin side down in the basket. Air-fry at 400 Degrees for 6-8 minutes until just cooked through, depending on how thick the filets are.
If using the oven:
Place your oven rack 6 inches from the broiler heat source and set your oven broiler to HI.
Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil and spray with nonstick spray.
Lift the salmon out of the marinade with tongs and shake off excess. Place salmon on the foil, skin side down, and broil for 5-8 minutes depending on the thickness of the salmon and until done to your liking.
Serve right away with rice and broccoli, on a pile of noodles, or over a salad.
