Description
Delicious crispy salmon bites coated with a flavorful Bang Bang sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound salmon fillets (skinless, cut into 1 to 1½-inch cubes)
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- ¼ cup sweet chili sauce
- 1 tablespoon sriracha
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon lime juice
Instructions
- Season the salmon: Add the salmon cubes to a large bowl. Sprinkle in the cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss until each piece is evenly coated (do not add the oil yet).
- Cook the salmon: Place a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Let it heat until shimmering. Arrange half the salmon in a single layer. Cook 2 to 3 minutes per side, turning to brown multiple sides, until lightly crisped and cooked through. Transfer the cooked salmon to a plate and sear the remaining salmon the same way.
- Make the sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, honey, and lime juice until smooth.
- Finish and serve: Drizzle the Bang Bang sauce over the warm salmon bites. Serve with rice and top with sliced cucumber, green onions, and sesame seeds if desired.
Notes
- Ensure the salmon is fresh for the best flavor.
- Adjust the spice level of the sauce according to your preference.
