1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

Directions

Make foil sling for air-fryer basket by folding 1 long sheet of aluminum foil so it is 4 inches wide. Lay sheet of foil widthwise across basket, pressing foil into and up sides of basket. Fold excess foil as needed so that edges of foil are flush with top of basket. Lightly spray foil and basket with vegetable oil spray.

Combine coriander, cumin, ginger, cinnamon, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper in small bowl. Pat halibut dry with paper towels, rub with 1 teaspoon oil, and sprinkle all over with spice mixture.

Arrange fillets skinned side down on sling in prepared basket, spaced evenly apart. Place basket in air fryer and set temperature to 300 degrees. Cook until halibut flakes apart when gently prodded with paring knife and registers 140 degrees, 12 to 16 minutes, using sling to rotate fillets halfway through cooking.

Meanwhile, microwave chickpeas in medium bowl until heated through, about 2 minutes. Stir in lemon juice, harissa, honey, remaining 1 tablespoon oil, ⅛ teaspoon salt, and ⅛ teaspoon pepper. Add carrots and 1 tablespoon mint and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Using sling, carefully remove halibut from air fryer and transfer to individual plates. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon mint and drizzle with extra oil to taste. Serve with salad and lemon wedges.

Serves: 4
Cook Time: 18 minutes
Total Time: 35 minutes

The thickness and marbling of boneless short ribs can vary; look for lean ribs cut from the chuck. Do not substitute bone-in English-style short ribs. Because they are cooked gently and not seared, the short ribs will be rosy throughout.

2 teaspoons smoked paprika
2 teaspoons packed brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
Salt and pepper1½ pounds boneless short ribs, 1½ to 2 inches thick and 4 to 5 inches long, trimmed2 teaspoons plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil1/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
1 small shallot, minced
2 garlic cloves, minced
Pinch cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
2 teaspoons lemon juice

Directions

Combine paprika, sugar, cumin, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in bowl.

Pat short ribs dry with paper towels, rub with 2 teaspoons oil, and sprinkle evenly with spice mixture. Arrange short ribs in air-fryer basket, spaced evenly apart.

Place basket in air fryer and set temperature to 250 degrees. Cook until beef registers 130 to 135 degrees (for medium), 18 to 24 minutes, flipping and rotating short ribs halfway through cooking.

Transfer short ribs to cutting board, tent with aluminum foil, and let rest while preparing relish.

Microwave bell pepper, shallot, garlic, cayenne, ⅛ teaspoon salt, and remaining 2 tablespoons oil in bowl, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened, about 2 minutes. Let cool slightly, then stir in cilantro and lemon juice.

Season with salt and pepper to taste. Slice short ribs thin against grain and serve with relish.
