Fast fixes for the most common texture and doneness misses.
Lower the next batch by 10-15°F or check Salmon Patties 2 minutes earlier. Pull delicate pieces early; carryover heat finishes them quickly.
Pat dry, avoid overcrowding, and add a light oil mist only after seasoning so airflow can crisp the surface.
Drop the temperature one step, use the lower time range, and move sugar-heavy marinades or sauces to the final minutes.
Split thicker pieces, preheat when recommended, and add short 1-2 minute bursts instead of restarting a full cook cycle.
