I went with thyme and rosemary, but dill and chives would be amazing too!

Then add the rest to the bowl with the potatoes.

Toss until evenly coated.

Then season both the salmon and the taters with kosher salt and pepper.

The potatoes will take longer to cook, so we will add those to the air fryer first.

Set the air fryer to 400 degrees for 8 to 9 minutes.

Then place the gorgeous salmon fillets right over the potatoes.

And set the air fryer to 400 degrees for 10 to 12 more minutes.

Cook time will depend on your air fryer and the size of the salmon fillets.
