Meanwhile, preheat the air fryer to 400 F and drizzle the salmon with honey and add paprika, cumin, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil, and using your fingers, rub the seasoning into the salmon. Air fry for 8-10 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 145 F.
While the salmon is cooking, prepare the wasabi avocado sauce. Add the wasabi peas to a food processor or blender and process on high until they become a fine powder (like coarse sand). Then add the avocado, greek yogurt, lemon juice, cilantro, olive oil, water, and fresh cracked pepper and process on high for 1-2 minutes or until smooth and creamy. If you like your sauce thinner, you can add 1 tbsp of water at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
To serve, divide the rice between two bowls. Add the salmon, wasabi avocado sauce, carrot ribbons, sliced radishes, and green onions to the bowls. Finish with a squeeze of lemon and garnish with cilantro.
Oven instructions
To cook the salmon in the oven, preheat to 425F and bake the salmon on a greased baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the internal temperature of the salmon has reached 145 F.
Notes
Use a teaspoon of wasabi paste in the avocado sauce if you like the heat!
If the wasabi avocado sauce is too thick for your liking, add more water 1 tbsp at a time until it reaches your desired consistency.
