Ingredients

1 piece of air fryer salmon
2 leaves butter lettuce
1 tablespoon homemade tarter sauce
1 toasted bun
a few slices of thinly sliced red onions

Instructions

Prepare your homemade tartar sauce and set it aside.
Follow my air fryer salmon recipe to get perfectly crispy, flaky salmon.
Lightly toast them in a pan, air fryer, or oven for extra texture.
Layer butter lettuce, thinly sliced red onion, air-fried salmon, and a generous spread of tartar sauce on the toasted buns. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Recipe Variations:

- Make it Spicy – Use a dollop of Spicy Mayo or Alabama White Sauce. You can also sprinkle the fish with spices like cumin and red pepper.

- Salmon Melt: Before assembling, Melt a slice of cheddar or Swiss cheese on the salmon. It will remind you of that fast-food fish filet sandwich you had as a kid!

- Add More Toppings – Add a few slices of avocado, tomato, cucumber or pickles. Bacon is also delicious for extra crunch and smokey flavor.

Leftovers:
This sandwich is best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers, you can store the salmon and sauce separately. The salmon will last for 2 days in the refrigerator in an airtight container, and the tartar sauce will last 5 days.
