In a small bowl, thoroughly combine soy sauce, honey, garlic powder, lime juice, and optional zesty lime zest. Ensure a well-blended mixture.
Place the salmon skin in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the fillets, then refrigerate for 20-30 minutes to allow the salmon to absorb the flavors.
Meanwhile, preheat your air fryer to 375°F, ensuring a perfect balance of crispiness and tenderness.
After marinating, remove the salmon fillets from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Season both sides with a pinch of salt and a dash of pepper.
Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Gently place the seasoned salmon fillets in the preheated air fryer basket, skin side down. Cook for approximately 10-12 minutes, adjusting the time based on the fillets' thickness.
Serve the air-fried honey garlic salmon with a side of fresh salad, steamed veggies, or a bed of fluffy rice. Enjoy the delightful combination of flavors and textures!

Quinoa or Rice:
- Serve the salmon on a bed of fluffy quinoa or white rice. The grains will absorb the flavorful sauce, creating a satisfying base.
Roasted Vegetables:
- Roast vegetables like carrots, Brussels sprouts, or bell peppers for a caramelized and savory side that pairs well with the honey garlic salmon.
